About this activity
Itinerary
Our Freediving Level 1 Course is a two days experience. We’ll take you through a journey of discovering how you are able to hold your breath and relax to feel comfortable in the water depths. Both days we’ll go over the theory, covering topics such as breathing techniques, equalization, freediving physiology, safety and everything you need to start your path in freediving.
Your days will start at our shop at 8:30 am with a theory session of 1:30 hr, followed by a drive in our comfortable a/c minivan (45 min to 1 hr) to the beautiful Cenotes that the Riviera Maya offers us.
Once in the Cenote we do some stretching for freediving followed by 2 sessions of 1 hr in the water. After the class we get out of the water and provide you with a light lunch, sandwich, some fresh fruits, snacks and water as we start heading back, arriving at our shop around 4:00 pm.
During the water sessions we’ll introduce you to the different disciplines of freediving such as: Free-immersion and constant weight, followed by different skills to be performed as requirements of the course: constant weight to 10 Mts, ascent without a mask, ascent with only arms and rescue drill from 10 mts. One of the days is also complemented by a pool/confined water session where we introduce you to some breath-holding and finning technique.
All our courses run in the unique Cenotes, which we find all over Yucatan and the Riviera Maya. They are not only beautiful but also present us the ideal conditions to learn to freedive. Visibility in the cenotes and caverns is only limited by the quality of your vision, it presents no currents or surface motion. The temperature in the cenotes is average of 24C, these is why we will provide you with a 5 mm wetsuit and socks making sure you can enjoy your experience and relax at a maximum as a complement to our top brand full freediving gear.
*the cenotes we go vary though all the riviera Maya, sometime will go to areas such as Puerto Morelos and sometime places such as Tulum. The Cenote will go is not confirmed until the day of the course.
Duration: 8 hours
Location: Amancay Freediving, Calle 6 Norte between 10th Av and 15th Av., Playa del Carmen 77710 Mexico
