Mermaid Tasha Delmarva's Premier Mermaid Entertainment company available for bookings year-round in OCMD & beyond
(8)

Tasha Haight is the owner of Mermaid Tasha LLC, Delmarva's Premier Mermaid Entertainment. She has been performing in various capacities since the age of 4 and has her Masters of Business Administration degree from Loyola University Maryland. In 2017, she joined the Circus Siren Pod, a team of professional mermaids, as "The Marlin Mermaid" - an homage to Ocean City, the White Marlin Capital of the

World. Her first performance tail is now on display for all to see at the Mermaid Museum in Berlin. In 2019 she branched out and created Mermaid Tasha LLC, and today she even has a team of mermaids herself that help with appearances around town in season. When the pandemic hit in 2020, most in person events came to a halt, forcing Tasha to think outside of the box to continue to survive as a professional mermaid. This led to the creation of Mermaid Camps, an intensive where children ages 8-15 learn to be a mermaid themselves - including how to swim safely in a mermaid tail, how to care for the environment, fun facts about local marine life, mermaid crafts, and a mermaid photoshoot! Today, Mermaid Tasha LLC offers a variety of mermaid entertainment options, including private/birthday parties, hotel and community appearances, mermaid lessons, mermaid photoshoots, mermaid camps, public events, library readings, and more! Tasha is also a published author that currently has several books available that focus on conservation through a fun mermaid theme. You can find them at many local bookstores as well as online via lulu.com. Tasha prides herself and her company on being environmentally-focused as well as the safest mermaid option on Delmarva. Tasha is a PADI Mermaid Instructor, Advanced Freediver, and Divemaster. Additionally, Tasha has over a decade of lifeguard experience and is certified in first aid, CPR and AED. Mermaid Tasha has swam all over the world with a wide variety of wildlife and would love to tell you stories of her favorite creatures at your next event! Visit www.mermaidtasha.com or follow on social media (Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube) to join in on her next adventure!

In observance of World Drowning Prevention Day, our lifeguards are wearing blue zinc to help raise awareness. Drowning doesn’t have a single cause, or a single solution. But it can be prevented. Drowning is an issue that affects every nation of the world. Globally, nearly a quarter of a million people lose their lives to drowning every year. Almost 82,000 of them are children.
We are on duty from 10:00 am -5:30 pm. Swim only when lifeguards are on duty, because over 98% of all drownings in Ocean City over the past 100 years have occurred when the Beach Patrol was not on duty! Introduce yourself to the lifeguard at your beach. Read the back of the lifeguard stand. It has valuable information that could save a life. You can also ask about ocean conditions for the day. An informed beach patron is a safe beach patron! Stay safe and enjoy your beach day responsibly! ☀️🏖️

It's World Drowning Prevention Day! This is why it is so important to have safety standards and learn how to swim SAFELY. Don't let your child wear a tail without the proper training, or the proper fin inside the tail!
When people ask why they should bother getting a PADI Mermaid Certification, the safety standards are always my number 1 reason! When your legs are bound and you have a weight on your feet, you want to be sure you know how to safely handle the situation to prevent drowning! It's never too early or too late to learn some additional safe practices, especially around water.

Open Water vs Confined Water

In Discover Mermaid, Basic Mermaid, and PADI Mermaid, we use confined water. This is normally a pool, or pool-like structure in regard to depth, clarity, calmness, and size.

Open water, on the other hand, is used for Advanced Mermaid and is much larger than a confined water site. We normally use a natural body of water, such as a bay, spring, river, ocean, or lake for open water.

Swipe to see @757.splash.pad - one of our favorite confined water sites in Virginia - and Ichetucknee Spring, one of our open water sites in Florida!

Have you read Mermaid Tasha's Mission? If so, you might recognize these three (3) water bottles! These are the actual 3 water bottles that Mermaid Tasha found while surfing (well, floating while others surfed 😂) that started her conservation journey!
Did you know that our books are based on real-life experiences? They are!
This Plastic-Free July, swap your plastic bottle for a reusable water bottle you can fill up!

It's International Plastic Bag Free Day! If you've ever wondered why this is a thing, check out this display at Adventure Aquarium! It shows jellyfish and plastic bags in the same tank - you can imagine how easily they can get confused for each other, especially by creatures that aren't familiar with plastic bags! This plastic free July, try switching out your plastic bags for reusable eco-friendly bags instead!

Happy Teacher Day! An inside look at the new School Version of Mermaid Tasha's Mission

Happy Earth Day! 🌍 Let me tell you a story...once upon a time there was a beautiful mermaid. She dreamt of healthy, thriving coral reefs. But when she woke up, she found she was in a desolate location without the abundance of her dream reef. Convinced there were still reefs like those she dreamt of, the beautiful mermaid took off in search of healthy coral reefs. She searched and searched but couldn't find any as amazing as in her dream. Eventually she realized all coral reefs needed protecting, not just the one in her dream, so she used a reef-safe sunscreen (instead of harmful chemical sunscreens). Her act of choosing to protect the reefs unlocked nature's beauty and she was rewarded by finally finding reefs just as vibrant as in her dream! Mermaid: @mermaidtasha of course Videographer: Drygalla Images & Films Underwater @difunderwater Reef-Safe Sunscreen: @Stream2Sea (discount code mermaidtasha) Taken During Mermaid Kat's Mermaid Week Egypt

Come tour the reef with me in my Snorkeling Beach Reef Tourer snorkel set! The ridges on the fins help redirect water so I move through the sea quicker, while the tempered glass lense in my mask is not only scratch resistant with safety impact protection, but it provides amazing clarity, color, and light transmission!

This week I'm at the Women In Publishing Summit! Get ready for our Mermaid Tasha books to go to the next level! Happy International Women's Day!
