Sea nymphs are mythological creatures from ancient Greek mythology, often associated with the sea and water bodies. They are typically depicted as beautiful young women who inhabit oceans, rivers, and lakes. Sea nymphs are considered minor deities, known for their enchanting beauty and connection to nature.
These beings are often linked to other water-related figures, such as Nereids, who are sea nymphs specifically associated with the Mediterranean Sea. Sea nymphs are known for their playful and sometimes mischievous behavior, often helping sailors or luring them into the depths of the water.
