Found in traditional Irish and Scottish folklore, the selkie is a cousin of the mermaid. While swimming, selkies appear as a seal, but on land they shed their seal skins to walk amongst humans!

​

Some common features of selkies are long brown or black hair, beautiful bodies, and webbing in between their fingers and toes.

​

If you find a seal at the beach who needs your help, dont hesitate! She may bring you luck on your next sea adventure.
