Weeki Wachee

Weeki Wachee is a well-known place name in western Hernando County, inland from Bayport and the Gulf coast. The wider region includes separately mapped communities such as North Weeki Wachee and Weeki Wachee Gardens.

Weeki Wachee Springs State Park is a defining local landmark, known for its spring and longstanding underwater mermaid performances. The spring-fed river and the surrounding Nature Coast landscape give the area an outdoor identity that extends beyond the park, while residential settings vary across the broader Weeki Wachee region.
