What is freediving?

Freediving is diving while holding your breath. It is the most natural way of interaction with the marine world, it can keep you healthy and in good shape, to rediscover your abilities, to travel around the world and meet new friends.

Freediving gives you a sense of freedom like no other sport. It can help you take better underwater pictures, make your underwater hunting,  surfing or swimming safer; make your scuba dives longer; improve your breathing; and give you confidence out of the water in all areas of your life.

Apart from being a nice way of relaxing during weekends, freediving is also a sport with international competitions. Professional freedivers exploit their body adaptations to reach depths of more than 200 meters on a single breath of air.
