Last March 29, my social media feed was bombarded with images of scuba divers and freedivers in their mermaid attire. As it turns out, it was International Mermaid Day!
I didn’t even know that it was a thing, but now that I think of it, it just seems right to have one.
Mermaids have been part of our lives since for as long as we can remember. I myself grew up watching Disney’s Little Mermaid and have memorized the songs to heart.
Many cultures even have their own names for mermaids. They have been known as siren or sirena, seductress of the sea, ocean nyphm, or if you’re like me, Ariel!
Folklores of an aquatic creature with the head and upper body of a female human and the tail of a fish are found around the world. These mystical creatures have been part of different cultures. And tales of their ethereal world have been passed on from one generation to the next.
As someone who loves the ocean, I can only fantasize about being one of them. The closest I’ve been to being a mermaid is through diving and the hours I have spent underwater feeling like a mermaid is precious to me.
It wasn’t until I immersed myself in scuba that I realized how many women like myself love mermaids. Whether it be their ability to swim with grace or simply their mesmerizing beauty, these mystical creatures have brought so much joy and wonder in many women’s lives.
Inspired by the fabulous mermaids I know, I decided to put this list of mermaid gifts for women. If you know someone obsessed with anything mermaid, then continue reading for the most unique gifts for mermaid lovers.
