Canaries freediving holiday

freediving in tenerife - freediving17Welcome to the Fifth year of our amazing freediving holiday to the gorgeous island of Tenerife, in the Canaries.

The holiday is primarily for training, but with plenty of down time available too, this is the perfect getaway for those who want to improve their freediving in clear warm waters, whilst also enjoying some all year round sun.

The week is suitable for all abilities (please note if you are not undertaking a Freediving course during the holiday you must be a minimum of RAID, Padi, SSI, Aida 2* qualified) and will combine yoga sessions, 6 days of freediving with a trip to dive with super friendly turtles and rays.

Check out the video from out 2018 trip  and our 2019 trip, where we enjoyed glorious winter sun, daily dives, wreck dives, recreational trips, yoga, masterclasses, explored the island and enjoyed all the social aspects of holidaying in a charming unspoiled fishing town.

Canaries Freediving Holiday – Itinerary

This holiday consists of 6 days of amazing freediving training, including the use of a freediving centre (shower, bathroom, kit storage, stretching mats, weight rental, buoy rental and set up), the use of the pool for static and dynamic, use of two extra local freediving instructors (in addition to Emma Farrell and another Go Freediving Instructor TBC). There will be two depth sessions available per day with unlimited use of the pool outside of this time, plus an equalisation masterclass and more.
Please note: in the event Emma Farrell is unable to attend the trip or any workshops (for whatever reason) a suitable free diving instructor will attend in Emma’s place. Customers will not be charged extra or given any kind of discount if Emma is not the group lead instructor.

Tandem No Limits Freediving

Following the success of the Tandem No Limits freediving we are delighted to be able to offer Tandem No Limits Freediving into part of the trip package (this is an additional cost). This is an exciting freediving experience, and one I highly recommend trying!

Turtle Trip

The popular Turtle Trip is not included in the cost of the holiday but is a fantastic experience! The turtles are so friendly that they previously ate the hair of one of our divers and then stole his mask!

Freediving in Tenerife-Avg-water temp

The beauty of this volcanic island has attracted freedivers for many years. And this year it is our turn! If you are joining the trip but don’t fancy diving (or if you are coming with someone who is) there is no shortage of beautiful attractions, beaches shops and more to keep you entertained. On the south of the island you will find many tourist oriented beaches and resorts, whereas on the north are more local towns and charming local villages.

The temperature of the water in this part of the Atlantic Ocean ranges from 26 degrees in the summer/autumn to 18 degrees in the winter.

We will be staying in the Bay of Tabaiba – a ideal diving location, sheltered from almost all directions. There are no currents and the surface is always calm, giving perfect conditions for diving, including a stunning visibility.
