Visit the undersea world the natural way… on a single breath!
Freediving in Dahab
Freediving has seen a massive growth in popularity in the last few years, it has grown from a fringe sport with a ‘dare-devil’ image to something which nearly everyone can try. With it’s clear, warm water and almost limitless depths directly off-shore, Dahab is perhaps the best place in the world for freediving and perfect for beginners and world record breakers alike!
You can just try a ‘taster’ to get a feel for the sport and we also offer full range of PADI or AIDA (Association Internationale pour le Development de L’Apnee) freediving courses to gain an internationally recognized certification.
This one day course will introduce you to the equipment, theory and techniques for free-diving safely. You will be amazed at how much you can improve with just a single day of professional training.
This course takes two or two and half days and is a must for those who really want to get down amongst the fish!
Thorough theory lessons prepare you for the static and dynamic apnoea sessions (breath holding stationary and while swimming) before venturing out into our beautiful bay where you may amaze yourself and how deep you can now get!
You’ve now got the bug big time! It’s time to dive into the depths of free-diving.
As well as going deeper and longer, you will learn about rescue techniques, the physics and physiology of breath holding and, most importantly, the planning and safety of free-diving. After 3 days you may well be going deeper than those with Scuba units! Ultimate freedom in the water!
