==Plot==
Best friends Claire Brown and Hailey Rogers are enjoying their last few days of summer vacation in their small beach town of Baybridge near [[Tampa, Florida|Tampa]], before Hailey has to move to Australia due to her mother's job as a [[marine biologist]]. Hailey prays to the ocean gods for a miracle to change her mother's mind about moving; minutes later, a violent storm occurs.
The next night, the girls sneak into the local pool, where they discover a [[mermaid]] named Aquamarine, who had been washed in by the storm. Aquamarine explains that she ran away from home after being forced into an [[arranged marriage]] by her father, as mermaids do not believe in true love. However, he has agreed to end the engagement if she is able to prove to him that love does exist.
Aquamarine explains that she is able to transform her tail into legs during the day, but will revert into a mermaid if she touches water, as well as when the sun sets. She also confesses that she has her eyes set on Raymond, a lifeguard Hailey and Claire have had a crush on for years. They are reluctant to help her get him to notice her, but agree after Aquamarine reveals anyone who helps a mermaid is granted a wish, hoping to use the wish to prevent Hailey's impending move.
Not understanding human social cues, Aquamarine is rejected by Raymond when they first meet. Hailey and Claire promise to make Raymond fall in love with her in the next three days using strategies found in teen magazines. A group of popular girls headed by Cecilia Banks, the spoiled daughter of local meteorologist Storm Banks who is also interested in Raymond, attempt to sabotage Aquamarine.
Aquamarine and Raymond bond at a local dance. She hastily leaves before her tail can reappear, but first kisses him and asks him to meet her on the pier in the morning. Cecilia follows the girls to the water tower where Aquamarine is staying and discovers her secret. She unhooks the ladder to prevent Aquamarine from leaving and calls the news to expose her on national television. The town's mysterious handyman, Leonard, helps Aquamarine escape, and she grants him a wish. As punishment for publicly humiliating him, Storm confiscates Cecilia’s car, the [[pink]] [[Volkswagen]] [[convertible]].
The next morning, Aquamarine asks Raymond if he loves her. Raymond admits that he likes her, but has not fallen in love with her yet, as they have only been on one date and he wants to take his time getting to know her. Cecilia angrily approaches and pushes Aquamarine into the ocean, revealing her true form to Raymond. He is shocked, but rushes to get his rescue board to save her, much to Cecilia's dismay.
Aquamarine's father summons a giant storm to drag her back home, but Hailey and Claire jump into the ocean to her aid. When Aquamarine asks why they risked their lives to save her, they respond that they love her. The power of the girls' friendship finally convinces Aquamarine's father of true love's existence, and the storm subsides. Realizing how hard Hailey's mother has worked for her job, the girls decide to save their wish for something else, and say goodbye to Aquamarine, who promises to visit. Raymond also asks her to visit him, and they kiss. Back on shore, Raymond thanks the girls for their bravery and for introducing him to Aquamarine. Hailey and Claire tell each other they will miss each other, and part ways.
In the stage booklet during the end credits, it is revealed that Claire, Raymond, and Aquamarine reconnect with Hailey in Australia a year later and explore the [[Great Barrier Reef]] together.

Michael Rechtshaffen of ''[[The Hollywood Reporter]]'' called ''Aquamarine'' a "bright and breezy tween fantasy romantic comedy that coasts along on its charming performances and the light comedic touch of first-time feature director Elizabeth Allen."<ref name="HR">{{cite web |url=http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/thr/reviews/review_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1002115112 |title=Aquamarine |website=[[Hollywood Reporter]] |access-date=11 January 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060316102727/http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/thr/reviews/review_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1002115112 |archive-date=16 March 2006 |url-status=dead}}</ref> ''[[Variety (magazine)|Variety]]''{{'s}} [[Joe Leydon]] praised the film, writing, "The high-concept premise{{nbsp}}... has been fleshed out with inventive wit, unsticky warmth and more than a little wackiness.

Numerous critics praised the film's themes and message. Grading the film a "B−", Chris Kaltenbach of ''[[The Baltimore Sun]]'' liked how "''Aquamarine'' exhibits a welcome empathy for adolescent girls and an understanding of how they interact" while teaching the difference between "what is important (friendship, self-confidence, altruism) and what seems important (puppy love, trendiness, running with the pack)."<ref>{{cite web |first=Chris |last=Kaltenbach |date=3 March 2006 |title='Aquamarine' has girl power |website=[[The Baltimore Sun]] |url=https://www.baltimoresun.com/entertainment/movies/bal-to.aquamarine03mar03,0,1188056.story?coll=bal-artslife-movies |access-date=22 January 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060420130102/https://www.baltimoresun.com/entertainment/movies/bal-to.aquamarine03mar03,0,1188056.story?coll=bal-artslife-movies |archive-date=20 April 2006 |url-status=dead}}</ref> Describing ''Aquamarine'' as engendering a "vision of cherished sisterhood", Callie Ahlgrim of [[Insider Inc.|''Insider'']] wrote that the film "is a [[rom-com]] insofar as it tells a boy-meets-girl story—but the deeper, more honest love between its young female leads is the film's true emotional core."<ref>{{cite web |first=Callie (contrib.) |last=Ahlgrim |date=14 February 2022 |title=53 of our favorite romantic comedies of all time |website=[[Insider.com]] |access-date=28 August 2022 |url=https://www.insider.com/favorite-rom-coms-best-romantic-comedies-movies |id={{ProQuest|2628327024}} |archive-date=4 October 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20241004042906/https://www.businessinsider.com/favorite-rom-coms-best-romantic-comedies-movies#coming-to-america-1988-3 |url-status=live}}</ref> Wesley Morris of ''[[The Boston Globe]]'' wrote that ''Aquamarine'' "is unique because it's the rare movie that fiercely respects the altruistic loyalty that bonds girls to one another."<ref>{{cite web |first=Wesley |last=Morris |date=3 March 2006 |title=She lives in the sea, but still needs a hunk |website=[[The Boston Globe]] |url=http://archive.boston.com/ae/movies/articles/2006/03/03/she_lives_in_the_sea_but_still_needs_a_hunk/ |access-date=20 January 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171209091813/http://archive.boston.com/ae/movies/articles/2006/03/03/she_lives_in_the_sea_but_still_needs_a_hunk/ |archive-date=9 December 2017 |url-status=live}}</ref> Ruthe Stein of the ''[[San Francisco Chronicle]]'' found that while the film "has a sweetness and innocence that makes it near perfect entertainment for its target audience", ''Aquamarine'' "avoids seeming coy and doesn't flinch from taking on serious issues that illustrate that life isn't all fluff even for the young."<ref name="SFC">{{cite web |first=Ruthe |last=Stein |date=3 March 2006 |title=She came from the deep -- and needs help with a date |website=[[San Francisco Chronicle]] |url=https://www.sfgate.com/movies/article/She-came-from-the-deep-and-needs-help-with-a-2503078.php |access-date=19 January 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211022220101/https://www.sfgate.com/movies/article/She-came-from-the-deep-and-needs-help-with-a-2503078.php |archive-date=22 October 2021 |url-status=live}}</ref> Rating the film 3 out of 5 stars, Roger Moore of the ''[[Orlando Sentinel]]'' wrote, "''Aquamarine'' really is just an adorable movie.
