Advanced Open Water

Elevate your freediving capabilities with the Advanced Freediver course offered by Apnea Natura. This program is meticulously designed for individuals who have successfully completed their initial Freediver certification and are eager to push their boundaries safely. You will delve into the critical concept of 'freefall' during descents, significantly enhance your equalization techniques, and master the planning and organization of secure apnea sessions with a buddy. The course aims to build your confidence and competence, preparing you for autonomous freediving adventures.

During the sea sessions, expect to comfortably increase your depth to an impressive 25-30 meters. This progression is achieved through refining your technique and understanding the physiological aspects of deeper dives. Pool sessions are equally vital, focusing on partner training, the development of personalized training plans, and exploring effective dry-land exercises to boost your overall performance. Apnea Natura's approach is personalized, with flexible scheduling to accommodate your individual needs, ensuring you achieve the goal of comfortably reaching 25-30 meters with excellent finning technique.

This advanced training is certified by SSI, a globally recognized agency, ensuring your certification is valid worldwide. The course structure emphasizes practical application and safety, building upon the foundational skills acquired in the Freediver course. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of breath-hold physiology and advanced safety protocols, crucial for deeper dives. The focus on buddy training ensures you can confidently and safely support a dive partner.

While specific monthly water temperatures are not provided for this location, the general sea temperature is around 19.5°C, which is generally suitable for freediving with appropriate thermal protection. The course emphasizes building a solid foundation for continued progression in freediving. For those interested in pool-specific training, a pool-only option is available, leading to an SSI Advanced Pool Freediver certification, validating your skills in pool apnea training. This course is a logical next step for anyone serious about advancing their freediving journey.
