The 2nd Annual Key West Mermaid Festival

The Key West Mermaid Festival invites you to step back in time to an island called Cayo Hueso (Bone Cay), where the Gulf meets the Atlantic, and the captains, seafarers, and fishermen would tell their stories of the sweet Mermaid songs. This fin-tastic five-day event will unite the Key West locals and tourists, our neighboring Keys, visiting mermaid communities, and mermaid enthusiasts from all around the globe. Family-friendly, with fun for all, this Key West pod will raise vibration and awareness for our beautiful oceans and educate all humans to swim safely in mermaid tails. #TheTakeOverIsReel, so come on down to get salty with all of the captains and mermaids who work hard to make Key West and the Florida Keys a better place for all who live the island life and our visitors. Historic Key West Vacation Rentals invites you to reserve a luxury boutique vacation rental from our collection. They're all fins up!
