Description

Course Overview

The pool is for practice, but the ocean is for living the dream. The PADI Advanced Mermaid course builds on your foundation skills and takes you out into the “wild.” Swimming with a mermaid tail in the open ocean requires a higher level of skill and safety awareness, but the reward is swimming alongside turtles, gliding over coral reefs, and truly becoming part of the marine environment. This course is about confidence, environmental adaptation, and advanced mermaid techniques in Semporna’s beautiful blue waters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Safety is our top priority. The PADI Advanced Mermaid course teaches you specific techniques to handle open water conditions. You will learn how to quickly release your monofin (safety release) in case of an emergency, and you will always be with a buddy and an instructor.

The PADI Advanced Mermaid course allows for dives up to **10 meters (30 feet)**. This is a perfect depth for most coral reefs in Semporna, giving you great lighting for photos and plenty of marine life to see.

Yes, absolutely. We offer a combo package where you do the confined water (pool) training on Day 1 and move to the open water (ocean) on Day 2. It’s the best way to get the full experience!

We provide tails and monofins for the course. However, many advanced mermaids prefer to buy their own silicone or fabric tails for a custom look. If you have your own, feel free to bring it!

We choose our dive sites carefully based on the conditions of the day. We look for calm, protected shallow reefs that are safe for mermaid swimming. You will also learn techniques to swim efficiently against mild currents using your powerful monofin.
