Beneath the Waves Freediving has established itself as the reference center for breath-hold diving in Puerto del Carmen. Its exclusive specialization in freediving distinguishes it from other operators in the area, offering a professional and dedicated approach to this fascinating underwater discipline.
As an SSI center, Beneath the Waves offers a complete apnea training trajectory ranging from the Freediver level for beginners to the Instructor Development Course for those wishing to become freediving teaching professionals. This ability to train instructors demonstrates their high technical level.
Breath-hold diving requires specific techniques of breathing, mental relaxation, and efficient underwater movement that are taught progressively. Beneath the Waves instructors guide students while always respecting each person's individual limits, prioritizing safety over performance.
EFR (Emergency First Response) training complements the apnea courses, an absolutely essential aspect in this modality of diving without autonomous equipment. Students learn to recognize and respond to emergency situations that may arise during freediving practice.
The center's dive shop has equipment specific for freediving, including long fins, low-volume masks, and wetsuits appropriate for this discipline. Available air fills allow freedivers to practice equalization techniques and lung preparation.
Diving excursions organized by the center take students to explore Lanzarote's spectacular volcanic bottoms in apnea. The lava formations, caves, and underwater arches create a unique landscape ideal for exploration without autonomous equipment due to their relatively shallow depth.
Snorkeling is offered as a complementary activity and as an introduction to the world of apnea for those who prefer to stay on the surface or are considering taking the step into freediving. Puerto del Carmen's crystal-clear waters make snorkeling a very rewarding experience.
The center's location in Puerto del Carmen provides easy access to multiple sea entry points ideal for apnea practice. The instructors know every corner of the coast in depth, selecting the best sites according to the day's conditions and students' level.
Nearby hotels like Hotel Fariones, Hotel THB Flora, and Alondra Villas Y Suites offer quality accommodation within easy reach of the center. The proximity facilitates organizing intensive freediving courses during vacations.
Restaurants in the area like La Cascada, Puerto Bahia, and El Cangrejo Rojo allow enjoying excellent local cuisine after training sessions. Puerto del Carmen's relaxed atmosphere perfectly complements a trip dedicated to freediving.
Beneath the Waves Freediving represents the natural choice for those wishing to explore the world of apnea with specialized instructors in one of the most spectacular settings in the Canaries. Its perfect 5-star rating reflects its students' satisfaction.
