Mermaids and Sharks
Subtropical Swimming Paradise
Little ones love to play let’s pretend, and our special swimming tails transform them into a graceful mermaid or a sneaky shark. Kicking, twisting and gliding around the shallows of our swimming pool, braver swimmers can dive for treasure on the ‘ocean’ floor. Our photographer will be snapping away during the session, so you can take home a complimentary photo of your little one as a mermaid or shark, not yet available at Longford Forest.
