Dip Your Toes Into The World of Freediving

If you’ve ever watched someone dive gracefully below the surface and thought, “I wish I could do that,” this course is for you.

Our Discover Freediving experience is a gentle introduction to the world of freediving — designed for snorkelers, ocean lovers, or anyone curious about exploring a little deeper. Under the guidance of our certified instructors, you’ll learn how to relax, breathe efficiently, and move calmly beneath the water.

Think of it as advanced snorkeling — but with the awareness and control that freediving brings. You’ll leave with new confidence, longer breath holds, and the ability to experience marine life up close in a way most never do.

Most participants finish this course feeling inspired and ready to take on the added challenge of open-water diving. Whenever you’re ready, you can seamlessly upgrade to the full PADI Freediver Certification.

Snorkeling is the simplest form of freediving and most freedivers actually start out by snorkeling! We love snorkeling because it is often people’s first intro to the ocean, and first impressions are everything! Our goal is to help people fall in love with the sea, so we want to make sure your experience is a good one!
