Every child deserves to see
themselves in the wonder of the sea

When a child opens one of our books, she doesn't have to imagine herself into the story — she's already there. From Jamaica to Curaçao, each mermaid carries the colours, the culture, and the name of her island. That moment of recognition? That's why we exist.

Our Story

Where imagination meets island identity

Mermaids of the Caribbean™ was born from a simple but powerful belief — every child deserves to see themselves in magical stories. We didn't just add diversity to an existing world. We built a whole new one, rooted in the real richness of Caribbean heritage.

Each mermaid character represents a real Caribbean island — her name, her colours, her spirit. From coloring books and activity adventures to journals and heartwarming short stories, our products make children feel proud of where they come from.

🧜🏾‍♀️ Ask Mermaid Dana

Have a question about
life under the sea?

Dana loves answering questions from sea-loving kids across the Caribbean and beyond. Mermaid Club members get first pick for featured answers, sneak peeks, and printable treats! 🌊

Dana
💬 "Do you really live under the sea?"

Yes! The Caribbean Sea is our home. We swim through coral castles, play with dolphins, and nap in seashell beds. 🌊✨

💬 "Can you talk to fish?"

Of course! Every fish has a different voice — tiny whispers from minnows, giggles from clownfish, and even the wise songs of sea turtles. 🐠🐢

💬 "Do mermaids have pets?"

We sure do! Some of us have starfish that cling to our shoulders, others ride seahorses, and a few even keep jellyfish as night-lights. 🐚

💬 "What do you eat?"

We love seaweed snacks, kelp cakes, and bubbleberry pies. But our favourite treat is treasure fruit that grows in hidden undersea gardens. 🍓✨

💬 "Do you ever come on land?"

Sometimes! We slip onto sandy beaches at night to watch the stars and collect seashells. But when the sun rises, we dive back home. 🌙🏖️

💬 "Can I be a mermaid too?"

Absolutely! All you need is imagination. If you love the sea, care for nature, and believe in magic — you already have a mermaid's heart. 🧜🏾‍♀️💙

💬 "Dana, what is the most beautiful thing you've ever seen?"

A little girl opening our coloring book for the first time and whispering "She looks like me." 🥹 That is more beautiful than every sunset over the Caribbean Sea. And I've seen about a million of those. 💛

💬 "How fast can you swim?"

Faster than a flying fish on a windy day — especially when there's cake at the coral café! 🐟💨

💬 "What's your favourite shell?"

A sunrise conch — pink like cotton candy and perfect for listening to the songs of the Caribbean Sea. 🐚🌅

💬 "Do you go to school?"

Yes! We learn reef science, current-mapping, and music with whale choirs. Homework: protect the Caribbean Sea. 🐋📚

💬 "Have you seen a pirate?"

Only at a beach costume party. He tried to steal my glitter — so my dolphin friends chased him away! 🐬🏴‍☠️

💬 "What games do mermaids play?"

Sea-tag around coral mazes, bubble-blowing contests, and hide-and-seek with octopus referees! 🐙🫧

💬 "Can I visit you in the Caribbean Sea?"

I'd love that! You can "visit" by caring for the Caribbean Sea — keep beaches clean, be kind to sea creatures, and learn about the islands. When you splash in those bright blue waves, we're already neighbours! 🌊🏝️

"These mermaids are quite diverse — your kids will feel like they are colouring themselves. My background is Jamaican so I was pleased to see 3 Jamaican mermaids. I bought a 2nd copy just for myself."

Lumière

Light of the Sea

A Mermaids of the Caribbean™ Story

Deep in the Caribbean Sea lives a mermaid unlike any other. She glows — not from treasure or magic — but simply because she was born that way.

When Dana and Sela lose something precious in the dark water, a soft light finds them. Her name is Lumière — and her greatest gift is the one that always made her different.

"Sometimes, what makes someone different
is what makes them shine."
