PADI Advanced Freediver

Course overview

The PADI Advanced Freediver course dives deeper into the theory and training concepts of Freediving, providing a comprehensive understanding of the physiology and techniques involved in deep freediving.

This course is designed to equip recreational freedivers with the skills and knowledge necessary to safely freedive, with or without a guideline. We aim to develop the ability to independently plan and participate in freediving activities with experienced freedivers.

What to Bring

It is recommended that you visit a doctor before you go scuba diving, particularly if you plan on taking a course.

If you are already certified, we need some proof of training with an internationally recognized diving organisation (AIDA, Molchanovs, PADI, SSI, etc). If you have forgotten or lost your card, we can only check PADI certifications online. 

You can hire equipment from us or you can bring your own freediving equipment. Check with your airline about any extra charges for sports equipment before flying.

We have a variety of masks but we always recommend bringing your own if you have one that fits your face.
