Sisters Maisie and Mila set out on what they think will be a regular beach vacation. But when they try out snorkeling for the first time, they find a seahorse tangled in a plastic bag. Of course they rescue the poor seahorse! But what they didn't know was that their good deed did not go unnoticed. They were seen by a magical sea turtle named Dash. And as a thank you for their kindness, he gives each of the sisters a magical bracelet that turns them into mermaids. Then he takes them on a fun filled tour of a coral reef and introduces them to the amazing creatures who live there!
