Make a Splash During Our Exclusive Mermaid Swimming Experience!

Join us for a magical evening where kids can dive into the world of mermaids and learn to swim with a real mermaid tail! Sessions are available between 5:00–8:00 PM on July 7 and July 21.

What to Expect

This unforgettable activity lets kids of all ages embrace their inner mermaid in a fun and safe environment. Each child will participate in a small group led by our professional mermaid instructor. Before swimming, a quick swim test will be given to ensure every participant is water-ready.

Registering More Than One Child?

Please register each child separately, as each registration reserves one spot in a specific group. This ensures we have the correct group sizes and tail fittings ready.

How It Works

  • Children are grouped by age to ensure the best experience.
    • There are 2 age groups to choose from. Youngest children will have the 5pm time slot.
  • Each group includes 6 kids and gets 30 minutes in the water.
  • All groups must arrive 15 minutes before their water time for check-in
  • Tail fitting, and the swim test will begin at the start time

Participant should be water-ready when they arrive
