The Mermaids are a race of half-woman half-fish that appeared as minor antagonists in Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. Sailors were told from time and time that they lure their prey with their beautiful looks and singing voice to their doom, usually being drowned and/or eaten. Once they have unwitting men tricked into going underwater with them, they change from model-like beauties to horrifying monsters that attack on sight.

- The Mermaids are minor antagonists from the live-action film Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. They are legendary aquatic creatures with the upper body of a female human and the tail of a fish. They first appear in Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides and the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at the Magic Kingdom, among other appearances. Beautiful, conniving and dangerous, these Mermaids will do anything to protect their home. Whitecap Bay is the final leg of the journey for the Fountain of Youth. It is also where mermaids have been known to gather for hundreds of years, thereby striking terror in the heart of sailors and pirates alike. Drawn to the surface by a singing sailor, they entrance their prey before dragging them to the depths of the Bay to devour them. The mermaids must defend against Blackbeard and his crew as they attempt to capture a live mermaid to harvest the mermaid's tear demanded by the Fountain of Youth ritual. In a sense, these mermaids provide both a complement and a contrast to those in the original Little Mermaid by Hans Christian Andersen. His merfolk could not shed tears because they lacked an immortal soul; the mermaids of On Stranger Tides instead have tears which can potentially grant immortality.
