Why should I hire Blue Mermaids?
1. We are experienced professionals, and work well with the public and children. Since 2010, our mermaids have worked numerous events, including water parks, festivals, fund-raisers, corporate events, country clubs, hotels, restaurants, bars, recreations centers, trade shows and more. In addition to events, our mermaids have done open ocean modeling, have been in commercials, and TV & news programs.
2. We do our best to portray real mermaids. Not all mermaids are the same, and you get what you pay for. Our mermaids will not show up in a fabric swimsuit tail unlike other performers in the area, we only wear movie grade special effects tails made to look as real as possible. We never break character during a performance, and when not performing, we keep our human identity disguised so that we never ruin the illusion! We include other costuming to enhance the real mermaid look, such as shell tops made from real shells. But we also have a variety of costuming for all kinds of events, including various types and colors of tails, tops, jewelry, colorful wigs and makeup, so that we can accommodate just about any theme or request. In addition, our performers do not have any visable tattoos.

Can you swim in the tail? Is it difficult to swim in a tail?
Yes we can swim in the tail. Most people would probably find swimming in the tail difficult or even impossible, but for us, it comes quite naturally, in fact, we find it hard to swim without a tail! Check out the videos page to see us swimming. |
What are the tails made of?
Our main tails are special effects items, made to look very realistic. They are made from a special silicone used for movie prosthetics. They all have textured scales and fins which adds to the realism. We also have other tails made of various materials that are used in events with special requests for color or style.

How much do you charge?
It depends. Cost starts at $200 and go up depending on the details, including the type of event or project, number of mermaids, amount of time, additional options, and travel. Use our booking form to send us the details and we will give you a custom quote. If your working with a budget, let us know what it is, and we will let you know what we can do within that budget. We are sometimes willing to do fund raisers and charities for free or discounted, so make sure you mention if you are having an event for a cause. |
What types of events do you do?
Mermaids are perfect for business promotion, community parties, country clubs, corporate events, advertising, trade shows, boat shows, festivals, fairs, fund raisers, print advertising, commercials, and more! Mermaids are great for promoting your product or service. We do not do events at private homes, such as birthday parties. |
What do you do at events?
It depends on the event! We provide a unique attraction for guests. People are excited to meet a real live mermaid! We can swim in your pool, but if there's no water around, we can sit and mingle with you and your guests. A mermaid can be a unique ornament or can talk to and take pictures with your guests.
For kids events: We can do anything from a simple meet and greet to a swim with a mermaid pool party. We can do a structured kids program, or let them take the lead! We can give them a piece of our mermaid treasure for a wonderful keepsake.
For adult events: We have been a unique ornament for swimming pools at large parties, and a unique photo opportunity for guest to get their photo with a mermaid. We can mingle with your guests, work as promotional models, give party favors to guests, or hand out promotional materials.
We also offer mermaid beach sighting in Florida, for a fun surprise! A beach location will be decided upon, where the mermaid will be, before you arrive. You will see her as you approach the area, and you can point it out to your children, guests, etc. The mermaid will swim to the shore and she will talk to your special guests, you can take photos and video with her, and she will leave you with a special gift from the sea.
In general, just having a mermaid is a huge draw for businesses and events, because people love meeting and getting a photo with a real mermaid! Just let us know what you would like us to do and we will do our best to accommodate you. |
What area do you work in?
Our mermaids are scattered throughout the state of Florida. However we are willing to travel! |
Can you be Ariel The Little Mermaid?
Not at this time. |
Where can I get a mermaid tail?
Our tails are movie quality prosthetics made from thick silicone, and as a result are very expensive. They are also very heavy, usually around 20-30 pounds. Therefore we do not recommend them for the general public.
