Learn to Freedive in Phuket with All 4 Diving

The PADI Freediver Course Phuket

But what is Freediving? Actually any breath-hold dive into the blue without diving apparatus is Freediving. It is more fun and athletic than Skin diving or Snorkeling while the equipment are only slightly different. It can be both very exhilarating and meditative at the same time. You will enter the water more quietly that all you hear are your heart beats and the sound of the ocean that make you feel like you are becoming one with it, with that one breath.

If this sounds like something that could make you stoked, then the PADI Freediver course Phuket is where you start the new journey to the joy of sense of freedom while exploring or keep on learning and practicing to become a better Freediver to compete if you’re a competitive person.

You might be surprised by your body’s ability to adapt in the water. Your PADI instructor will teach you how to Freedive safely in different sessions. In knowledge development session you will learn about Freediving principles then in confined water and open water session you will practice various skills that you need to know to be a part of the PADI tribe and become one with the ocean.

PADI Freediver course Gold

Price: 7,900 THB
Duration: 2 days

This is a certification course for beginner. The PADI Freediver course Gold option is for those who would like to spend 1 day on a day trip to Racha Noi and Racha Yai islands for 2 Open Water sessions. Racha islands are known for good visibility and white sandy bottoms with series for hard and soft corals – perfect for freediving and recreational dives.

The course consists of three main phases:
  • Knowledge development about freediving principles through independent study with PADI Freediver eLearning (or your instructor may conduct class sessions if not available in a language you understand).
  • Confined water session to learn breath hold techniques – static and dynamic apnea.
  • Open water sessions to practice free immersion and constant weight freedives, plus proper buddy procedures.

In this course, you will also learn how to use a mask, fins and a snorkel; you can also wear a wet suit and weight belt. It is best to use equipment designed specifically for freediving; however, in this course you will be able to use the snorkeling equipment you already own.

Included in your PADI Freediver GOLD course:

  • 1 day Knowledge development and Confined Water sessions
