Freediving is the purest form of underwater exploration where divers learn to supercharge their breath-holding ability and swim to depth using only a mask and fins. No heavy air tank, no scuba speed limit, nothing but the natural underwater world surrounding you. All of us have the potential to enjoy long periods underwater by learning how to harness the ‘Diving Reflex’ shared by dolphins, whales, seals and nearly all mammals, birds and reptiles.
Immerse yourself on the World Heritage Ningaloo Reef and discover your innate diving ability!
Our ocean enthusiast and Freediving Instructor Dino will guide you step by step through detailed workshops on breath-hold training, aquatic physiology, free dive efficiency, depth adaption and much much more. We aim to train freedivers who have the knowledge, ability and confidence to continue their training and ocean exploration long after completing their certification.

- Swim 200m unaided (mask allowed)
