Silverton mermaid aquarium shows

Silverton Casino Hotel operates a large on-site aquarium where costumed performers known as mermaids swim and perform scheduled shows for guests, a feature the resort has promoted for years. The mermaid performances take place in the aquarium visible from the casino and certain dining areas and are advertised as family-friendly entertainment. The juxtaposition of underwater performers inside a desert casino has made the attraction a frequent subject of local jokes and tourist photo captions.
