    Ever gone snorkeling in your tail? Like with a cruise ship excursion?

    I'm taking a cruise with my family this coming summer and very curious if I will be able to wear my tail LOL.

    Haha thanks! I'm determined to have a new tail by then no matter how much room it takes up in the cabin and how many crazy looks I get. I can't live on a boat for a week without my tail!!

    A new tail? Where do you plan on getting it from? Another from magictail, perhaps? Crazy looks shouldn't matter and the withdrawl from your tail is tough

    I snorkel pry once or twice a week in my tail with coridion. :-) We just put on our tail and our snorkeling masks and go to town. It's a blast.

    Good choices! Both are such wonderful tailmakers. And yes, I totally agree with Mike's aquamarine tails...so beautiful <3

    Be sure to let me know how it goes!! My mom said she thinks they just might make me wear a life vest but I mean I'm sure other people bring their own gear and that's what my tail is to me LOL.

    You should be allowed, if not you could always just use a monofin.

    How would the mermaid swimming motion do with snorkeling? I usually end up swimming with my whole body, so I feel like the snorkel would go in and out of the water. Haha.

    I actually wasn't planning on using a snorkel, I was just going to use goggles. You're right, if you used a snorkel it end up being filled with water :P

    There should be no problem with you using your tail. Perhaps on the cruise ship pools, there might be issues.
    And snorkeling can totally be down while wearing a tail, or monofin
    I love it! Makes you feel more like a dolphin. I wanna get one of those front mounting snorkels, but I'm not sure about how the range of vision works with one on LOL
    Have fun in Cozumel!

    I'm a cruise ship employee, and sadly it all depends on which company and what type of excursion. I know that they aren't allowed on Disney unless your either employed to do it as a job for them performing for guests, or if you're a fully trained scuba/freediving master and they pretty much don't have to look after you, as god forbid if you drowned that would be the end of the cruise line's rep! (Think how bad costa cruises looks after 2 ships sunk!)

    Haha yeah I work for Disney and I was literally just saying to my mom that's the one cruise I would never bring it to because I know their character policies would cause issues with it.

    I used to work at Disneyland but just left to finish my degree in Georgia. I plan to go back after I graduate though because it was seriously the time of my life.
