Como é a experiência?

The first thing that struck me was how surprisingly natural it felt slipping into a mermaid tail at Escambron Beach — definitely not something I expected to say. Our guide, Carla, handed me the tail with a smile, “You’ll get the hang of it.” She demonstrated how to wiggle into it (awkward but amusing), then we made our way across the sand toward the water. The ocean was warm, with a slightly salty-sweet taste on my lips, and a gentle breeze kept tossing my hair into my face. Carla chuckled and said that’s perfect for the famous “mermaid hair flip” — which is apparently a must-do here in San Juan.

I hadn’t realized snorkeling as a mermaid would feel so different from regular snorkeling. You have to move your legs together, almost like dancing underwater. At first, I flailed about, but after a few tries (and some encouragement from Carla), I started gliding past tiny fish darting through the coral. There was one magical moment when everything went silent except for my own bubbles — honestly, I still think back on that peaceful quiet. The GoPro was always nearby; Carla captured us trying out poses or laughing whenever someone got tangled up.

Afterward, we relaxed on our towels while Carla downloaded all the GoPro footage directly to our phones. My hair was full of salt and sand, but I didn’t mind — everyone looked delightfully silly and happy on camera anyway. If you want a day trip in San Juan that blends fantasy with playful fun, this mermaid snorkeling experience is perfect. And yes, you keep the videos as proof you were a mermaid for an afternoon.
