For those who have dreamed of being a mermaid, the opportunity has arrived. Mermaid School is returning to Las Vegas in time for summer break, held all season long at Silverton Casino.
As part of the magical 90-minute experience, fans ages seven to adult are transformed into a famed Silverton mermaid and swim in the casino’s 117,000-gallon aquarium, along with thousands of tropical fish and rays. Each session includes:

A mermaid “warm up” class
A swim session in the aquarium with a mermaid tail
A behind-the-scenes tour of the aquarium and the sea life that lives within it
A certificate of completion
A celebratory scoop of gelato (for kids) and a mimosa (for adults)
And, of course, an experience of a lifetime.
Mermaid School will be held on select days from 8:30am until 10am:

Mermaids have found their way back into pop culture this year in a big way, including an explosion of mermaid merchandise in stores. Much of the popularity is due to the late-May release of a new live-action version of “Disney’s Little Mermaid” in theaters.
