Explore the underwater world quietly, on a single breath!

Self discipline, self control and freedom await you as a PADI Basic Freediver.

 

Freediving is about inward power, discipline and control. If you’ve always wanted to enter the underwater world quietly, on your own terms, staying as long as your breath allows, then freediving is for you. Taking this course is your first step toward discovering why freediving is becoming a popular way to explore beneath the waves.

 

 

The PADI Basic Freediver course is a subset of the PADI Freediver course. Basic Freedivers only complete the knowledge development and confined water sessions. It’s a great first step for developing solid freediving skills. You learn basic freediving principles and focus on practicing breathhold techniques in our warm comfortable pool.

 

To enroll in the course you must be 12 years old or older. You need adequate swimming skills and need to be in good physical health. No prior experience with snorkeling, skin diving or freediving is required.

Younger than 12?
8 to 12 year olds and older can enroll in the PADI Skin Diver course.

 

The course includes:

• Knowledge development about freediving principles through independent study with PADI Freediver eLearning.
