Irish Mermaids

Irish Mermaids

Irish Mermaids are what we will be for most of the month of March.  It’s a time of spring with all things green and that includes our area’s Irish Heritage, St. Patrick’s Day, and lots of Irish fun. As with all Tybee Islanders, our Mermaids love fancy dress affairs, too.  We’ll be sporting our bangles and beads and green frocks, too. Come be our guests so you can be Irish, too!
