Dive with DiveGurus Boracay
The AIDA 1 - Introduction to Freediving course is a 1-day entry-level program teaching essential safety, breathing, relaxation, and equalization techniques for beginners. It usually includes online theory, a pool session for static apnea, and an open water session, requiring basic swimming ability to learn to dive safely to shallow depths with a buddy
Boracay is an underrated freediving destination, particularly known for its accessibility, warm water, and excellent training conditions. It is a premier spot for beginners and recreational freedivers who want to combine their sport with world-class beach life.
Boracay offers a mix of shallow coral gardens and deeper walls:
- Crocodile Island: Frequently cited as one of the best spots for its thriving marine life, colorful soft corals, and depth variety (5m to 20m+).
- Friday’s Rock: A large underwater rock formation that rises from 18m to about 10m, surrounded by schools of fish.
- Angol Point: A shallow (5m–12m) reef perfect for beginners to practice their duck dives and relaxation in a beautiful, low-stress environment.
- Balinghai Wall: Offers slightly more depth for those looking to practice wall diving, with interesting crevices and small caves to explore.
- Camia II Wreck: For advanced freedivers, this sunken cargo ship sits at around 25–30 meters. It’s a stunning site for those with the breath-hold to reach it.
