I have 3 daughters, for my sins and there was a sleepover recently (we get them a lot). 9.30 Sunday morning, I had to drive the 5 girls + two of my own to Watego’s Beach because there was going to be a mermaid swimming ashore. Honestly, a real one.

Turns out, she is a real one – I saw her with my own eyes. She’s a model and a professional mermaid and she’s swum with whales and can hold her breath for 5 minutes and 4 seconds (unverified – fed to me by a 12 year-old). It was quite cool.  She has her own website. Here.

Only in Byron Bay….
