One of the best experiences you will have. The show is so amazing and the springs are magically refreshing. If you go on a weekend or during summer or school vacations, go early because they stop letting people in when capacity is reached. We were burned by this once so we went to Pine Island. Weeki let us in later, just before the 3 pm show. Another thing, if there is a tropical storm or hurricane coming, they will close all day. We were burned by that on a different day. We went to Pine Isl (which also closed early) and then Bowl 360. Pick a good weather day and arrive early if you want to ensure you see a show. There is a small beach with chairs and plenty of other areas to set up your own belongings. There are snack shops or you can bring your own food. Also, bring lots of water as you will get thirsty quickly. There are three mermaid shows every day, weather dependent. Even though you will be indoors watching, the mermaids are outdoors in the spring, so they cannot perform in thunderstorms. When you see the mermaid show, you will not believe the setting is real. It looks beautifully surreal. It is well worth the drive and particularities. As you explore the park, you will be able to kayak through the river springs, go on a boat tour, zoom down a waterslide, float on the natural lazy river, or chill in the cool water. Noodle floaties are allowed. If you spend time in the water, afterwards, when you settle in for the evening, you will feel a special sense of restoration that only Weeki Wachee Springs can provide.
