PADI Advanced Mermaid™ – Take Your Mermaid Skills Into Open Water
About the PADI Advanced Mermaid™ Course
Ready to level up your mermaid experience? The PADI Advanced Mermaid™ course takes everything you learned in your mermaid training and applies it to real-world, open water environments. At Diving Academy, this course is your next big step toward becoming a confident and graceful mermaid in natural aquatic settings.
Unlike pool-based sessions, open water introduces a new world of exciting challenges—depth, visibility changes, currents, and marine life. You’ll not only gain confidence but also develop a deeper connection to the underwater world.

Navigate ascents and descents in a natural setting

Additionally, you’ll learn how to recognize and avoid potential risks while enhancing your comfort and control beneath the waves.

- Must be a minimum of 12 years old.
- Ability to swim at least 100m/320ft without swimming aids.

Course Medical Requirements
Scuba diving requires a minimum level of health and fitness. Chronic health conditions, certain medications and/or recent surgery may require you to get written approval from a physician before diving.
Avoid disappointment, download and review the Diver Medical form to ensure you won’t need a physician’s approval to dive before enrolling in a scuba course. Instructors, divemasters and dive shop staff are not physicians and should not be asked for medical advice; only medical professionals can give medical clearance to dive.
If you (or your physician) have questions about medical fitness to dive, contact the experts at Divers Alert Network (DAN).
