Weeki Wachee Springs is a Weeki Wachee, Florida tourist attraction where underwater performances by mermaids, women dressed with fins about their legs as well as other fancy outfits, can be viewed in an aquarium-like setting. A water park, Buccaneer Bay, and boat rides are also part of the attraction.

If they do exist, I'm sure they look nothing like the Little Mermaid.

Yes. In fact, there was recent reports about this from south-east Asia just five or ten years ago.
Check out a book 'Monsters' by a guy whose last name is Greer. It discusses mer-folk and you might find some references that lead you to other books.

the mermaid myth originated from olden time sailors
when it took months or years to get to your destination
if they weren't inclined to use cabin boys for sexual pleasure
they'd catch a dugong and use that
they have almost identical human female anatomy and breasts
so they made up the mermaid theory to cover up their deeds

Heard of sightings, yes, seen them no... My guess would be they don't exist. The physical properties to live half human in the water won't work.
