Just in time for spring break, Weeki Wachee Springs State Park has opened its doors. It had closed last year, with other state parks, to help limit the spread of COVID-19.

Like with many things these days, there will be some noticeable changes at the attraction.

According to a post on their Facebook Page:

  • Limited seating at the world-famous Mermaid Shows and The Ranger Experience
  • Wilderness River Cruise is not yet operational
  • And more!
