Freedive & Mermaid course March 5th-8th 2027

Imagine waking up in the beautiful Texas Hill Country, enjoying breakfast with your fellow mermaids, and then stepping right outside to begin your underwater adventure.

Our retreat home provides direct access to the water from the private home dock, allowing us to make the most of our time in the water without spending your retreat traveling from location to location.

You'll have the opportunity to train, practice, explore, and enjoy group swims right from the retreat home, surrounded by the natural beauty and peaceful atmosphere of the Hill Country.

The home dock becomes our underwater playground throughout the retreat—giving you more time to focus on your training, your skills, and your experience rather than sitting in a car traveling between locations.

And because we believe adventure and conservation go hand in hand, you'll also learn more about the freshwater environment around you and why protecting these incredible Texas waterways matters.

Your retreat home is more than just a place to sleep it's your home base for four days of connection, training, relaxation, and mermaid magic. You'll stay together in a beautiful retreat-style home with shared community spaces, home-cooked meals, and direct access to the water from the dock.
