*Please note: In the past we have unfortunately had many bad experiences with mermaid tails from different manufacturers. For safety reasons, we only allow participants to take part in our mermaid courses with mermaid tails from Mermaid Kat Shop. These are safe and specially designed for freediving and mermaiding. If you have a mermaid fin from another manufacturer, we ask you to book this course with a rental tail.
