Discover the silence of the ocean on a single breath. Rasdhoo Atoll offers perfect conditions - clear water, abundant marine life and a gentle current that carries you along the reef wall.
Fuvahmulah is a particularly exciting destination for freedivers, with deep blue-water drops and frequent encounters with large pelagic life that make every session unique.
The atolls of the Maldives are among the best places in the world to take up freediving. Warm 28-30 -C water, warm visibility exceeding 20 m and a wall that drops from 5 m straight to 30 m give beginners a safe, beautiful training environment.
At Drop Dive we combine SSI's structured freediving curriculum with our knowledge of the local reef system so you progress quickly and safely. Whether your goal is recreational breath-hold or deeper performance training, we have a programme for you.
All courses follow the SSI freediving curriculum and are taught by our SSI-certified instructors. Progress at your own pace with a maximum of 4 students per instructor.
