The Waterfront Shops
Duck NC
2018

In folklore, a mermaid is an aquatic creature with the head and upper body of a female human and the tail of a fish. Mermaids appear in the folklore of many cultures worldwide, including Europe, Asia, and Africa. Mermaids are sometimes associated with perilous events such as floods, storms, shipwrecks, and drownings.

With such a rich and varied history, the symbol of the mermaid is as changeable as the sea itself. In some cultures, the mermaid signifies life and fertility within the ocean. In others, she embodies the destructive nature of the water, luring sailors to their deaths — serving as an omen for storms, unruly seas and disaster.

We wanted to create an environmentaly friendly project that is in harmony with nature. The whole family can enjoy walking around our pond feeding the wildlife. We have egrets, ospreys, herons not to mention waterfowl, martins, turtles and fish that make this area their home. This is truly a tranquil setting in a busy world. If you desire a little more action take a leisurely stroll on the Boardwalk and enjoy viewing the parasailing and all the watersports activities.
