Adventure Tips

Arrive Early for Best Experience

Arriving 15 minutes early helps with timely check-in and allows your child to settle into the magical environment stress-free.

Bring a Change of Clothes

Mermaid tails can be wet and may limit movement, so packing extra clothes ensures comfort after the session.

Keep Sunscreen Handy

Even on cloudy days, apply sunscreen to protect from UV exposure during outdoor photo sessions and activities.

Book Weekday for Discounts

Mermaid transformations offer special pricing on weekdays, so schedule your visit Monday through Friday for savings.
