*Meet Misty the Mermaid

A “must-do” while you’re at The Island – meeting our real-life resident Mermaid, Misty! Stop by the Grotto pool to meet, greet and take photos with Misty herself. Pro tip: Misty wrote her very own children’s book, “The Missing Tiara”, which is available for purchase in the Gift Shop. Guests love snagging a copy and getting her signature – it’s the perfect souvenir from your week at The Island!

 

Non-resort guests can purchase a Day Pass here (subject to availability).
