End your summer in the most relaxing mermaid wellness retreat around. SumMER Camp is calling...
Are you sad Cali Mercon is over? We are TOO! Join us for the event of SumMER as we gather to retreat, relax and reconnect with our community. This camp is just what you will need to recharge after the hectic days of summer.
Lounge in a luxurious 20 person hot tub, or splash into a 17' deep, infinity pool with stunning views of the Northern California wine country. Pamper yourself at our Facial Bar and Mud Mask Station. Make a one of a kind top or accessory with Mermaid and Mom. Shoot in a dream pool with Liz Marchiondo Photography, and tromp around the grounds of this eclectic working farm to shoot a surreal mer out of water set with Erin St Blaine. And connect and hang out with amazing new merfriends!
