Do you know the history of the Weeki Wachee State Park? It’s a cool story.

Do you know the history of the Weeki Wachee State Park? It’s a cool story.

Newt Perry, a former Navy swimmer, turned this spring into a stage back in 1947, and the mermaid shows have run ever since. Performers breathe from submerged air hoses and swim choreographed routines while the audience watches through glass in an underwater theater. Elvis Presley stopped by to see it. The spring itself pushes out more than 117 million gallons of clear water a day at a steady 74 degrees, and the cave system underneath is the deepest known freshwater cave in the United States.

Florida folded the whole attraction into its state park system in 2008. Buccaneer Bay, the state's only spring-fed waterpark, shares the property: slides that drop you straight into the spring, a lazy river, a sandy beach. Those run seasonally, so check dates first. Kayak trips and riverboat tours fill out the rest.

Would you sit in the underwater theater for a show?
