Have you ever wanted to be a Mermaid?
Give it a go with a ‘discover’ session
Give mermaiding a go to discover why its becoming a popular way to explore underwater.
This is a taster session, to see if you like it!
The Discover Mermaid™ experience introduces you to some simple mermaid activities in the pool, shallow enough so that you can stand. It is designed as a flexible, informative, enjoyable, and controlled experience aimed at letting you discover what it’s like to mermaid dive.
To enroll in a Discover Mermaid experience, you must be at least six years old. You need to be in good physical health and comfortable in the water. No prior experience with snorkeling, skin diving or freediving is required.
The PADI Discover Mermaid experience consists of two introductory sections:
- At the start of the PADI Discover Mermaid session you will have an introductory briefing from your PADI Mermaid Instructor to learn the basics about being a mermaid.
- Followed by a shallow water session, when you will get to try on a mermaid tail, followed by mermaid swimming, going underwater and a few games.
Equipment
In the PADI Discover Mermaid experience, you will use a monofin (i.e. mermaid tail), mask, snorkel and fins. You may also use a wet suit and weight belt. Using gear designed specifically for mermaiding is best; however, in this introductory experience, you may be able to use snorkeling equipment you already own. If you are a freediver, some of your gear (e.g. mask, fins, snorkel) is also mermaiding gear.
