Freediver course

The PADI Freediver is a two day course. Day one exists of theory, breathing techniques and confined water skills. you can prepare the theory through self-study with the padi touch app which will be e-mailed to you or our BB divers shop. Once you are ready, we will train in our relaxing beach center, where you will learn more about relaxation and breathing techniques, followed by confined water training in static and dynamic apnea attempts from the beach or in the pool. You will find out all there is to know about the freediving equipment, safety regulations, specialized breathing and the physics & physiology of freediving. You will be amazed of your own capacities and reach a breath hold of 1.30 minutes with ease.

The second day we'll take you out on the boat to practice your new freediving skills in open water, after this training day you will be able to freedive to 10 to 16 meters. 

*Static apnea: is holding your breath under water as long as you can without moving.

*Dynamic apnea: is swimming as far underwater as you can on a single breath.

Advanced freediver course

The PADI Advanced Freediver course allows you to take your freediving skills to the next level and freedive to a depth between 16 and 24 meters.
The course will continue the journey, focusing even more on breath holding and safety of freediving. The advanced freediver will help you pushing your limits to longer and deeper dives, allowing you to become one with the underwater world and create an even stronger connection between body, mind and soul.
