Our Programs
Join us for a FREE freediving spearfishing safety program in your area!
To combat the rise of freediving and spearfishing related deaths, FreediveSafe! launched a community initiative to ensure everyone has access to essential freediving training.
Our goal is to ensure that every diver returns home safely and our programs are open to freedivers, spearfishers, watermen and waterwomen of all skill levels. Whether you have been spearfishing with your family for decades, or you’ve recently discovered the sport of freediving, if you hold your breath and swim underwater, you are invited to join our FREE public training made possible by our donors and volunteers.
Our team of professional, highly trained, certified freediving instructors provide the highest level of freediving safety training available. The Basic Freediving Safety course introduces students to proper freediving supervision and basic safety and rescue procedures used in recreational freediving and speafishing. This program should be viewed as a minimum requirement for everyone participating in any form of freediving. It could save your life or the life of your dive buddy one day.
