Autonomous Training Session

 

Please be advised that this is an autonomous training session, you need to be comfortable diving and safetying other freedivers, we will try to bring a master to be in charge of the training buoy, but can not be guaranteed.

If you want any specific coaching for this session, please call us to discuss.

 

About the Session

 

Every local knows that the Gold Coast is home to some world class dive sites, just few minutes from shore.

Depending on the dive site chosen for the day, our trips include either a long Line Diving Session and a short Reef Exploration Session (based on reported visibility) or Two Line Diving sessions. These line diving sessions are most likely to be drift sessions in order to cancel the current and wind effects on the line.

Our instructors are there to guide you and show you all the best parts of each dive site and plenty of tips for those wishing to improve in the sport of Freediving.

Please note: You must be a certified Freediver or be completing a course with us to join this trip.

We have all the gear you may need for rent. Just select the right options or let us know a few days before your course.

However, at this level we strongly encourage you to have your own gear including dive computer and a safety lanyard.
