Each session will be specifically tailored to meet your needs and comfort level. Mermaid swimming is a water aerobics event! You will receive a powerful core work out, all while having fun!
Swimmers are required to bring his or her own mermaid tail and monofin. We want you to know that safety is our top priority. Fin Fun tails and monofins meet the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) requirements for the United States and are constructed using top quality
materials. A Fin Fun mermaid tail has an opening on the bottom of the monofin and the tail to avoid trapping air that could form air pockets. Also, our foot retainers are specially designed to quickly release from feet with a slight tug to remove one foot, and then a quick push and kick to remove the other, yet it will remain snuggly on the feet during swimming. The soft, durable neoprene covering is also extremely comfortable and lightweight.
