With a new year comes new beginnings, right? Well this is definitely the case for us at Island Mermaids! After months of hard work, loads of sweat and oodles of planning (and not to mention thousands of sequins), we are happy to announce that Island Mermaids, the FIRST mermaid company in Indonesia, is officially up and running on the beautiful, tranquil and mystical island of Bali! Not to forget our stunning new, Sparkle mermaid tail!

To combine the two biggest loves of our lives – Bali & Mermaids – is something we are so lucky to have the opportunity to do! The Team at Island Mermaids have always dreamt of what it was going to be like, and to finally see that dream in action is indescribable – yes we still have to actually pinch ourselves!
To wake up in the morning, in Bali which is home to some of the most magical beaches and breathtaking diving sites we’ve come across, to make mermaid dreams come true, and being surrounded by beautiful, alluring and mystical mermaids each day just fills our hearts. And to now have this as our reality, we are truly #BLESSED!
Seeing just how far we’ve come – from a simple idea to a busy business; we began to realize how important it was to be an enthusiast in life. We realized if you are interested in something, no matter what is it, go at it full speed. Embrace is with both arms, hug it, love it and above all become passionate about it – because at the end of the day, the outcome of this will not only affect yourself, but also anyone who crosses your path. We know no body ever said it would be easy, but my goodness – it is worth it!
This journey has meant a lot more to us than creating a business or selling a simple product. Our products are created and sourced locally, all within Bali. Keeping jobs within small businesses that are in need, our tails are the only magical tails created within Bali. Not only does this choice help support local businesses and families, but also in a way it is giving back to the island that has given Island Mermaids so much love. In return, each tail is handmade and once completed, is blessed by a Balinese Hindu. We believe this blessing brings love, luck and happiness to each mermaid.
With this being said, Island Mermaids has formed such a large and supportive community that we couldn’t have ever imagined! To have people travel across seas to book a magical mystical dive with Island Mermaids, to experience this beauty first-hand, to having people receive our products worldwide and spread the love that Island Mermaids has to offer is truly astonishing.
While Island Mermaids will continue to offer a uniquely creative way to swim, while looking mystical in a mesmerizing mermaid tail – our mermaids will now be making a SPLASH on the East coast of Bali. Mermaids are getting their tails wet and travelling up the coast, exploring many new beautiful and truly magical locations we handpicked for our incredible mermaids.
Island Mermaids have also made a few changes to what we have to offer including exclusive mermaid photo shoots and private mermaid parties – both include professional photographer and mermaid stylist! Be sure to check out our ‘Packages’ page for further information.

Island Mermaids can fulfill dreams one mermaid at a time, now that’s success for us! Although, this isn’t the last you’ll hear from us at Island Mermaids – this is only the first splash of many to come.
