Confidence
Comfort and positive experiences in the sea come first. Young divers learn they can stay calm when something feels new.
FOR THE NEXT GENERATION
Freediving for
kids & teens.
Freediving can give young people much more than depth. With age-appropriate coaching it becomes a way to build confidence in the water, body awareness, focus and respect for personal limits.

WHY FREEDIVING
More than a sport in the water.
Body awareness
Breathing, relaxation and efficient movement teach them to listen to their own body.
Focus & calm
A slow breathe-up and a quiet dive are a rare break from screens and noise.
Safety habits
Never diving alone, watching a buddy and recognizing limits are lessons for life, not only for freediving.
PROGRAMS BY AGE
A clear pathway, at the right pace.
Every program follows SSI age and depth limits. We recommend the right starting point after a short conversation about your child’s swimming background and comfort in the sea.

OUR SAFETY APPROACH
Depth is never the goal.
- An instructor stays close in the water at all times; groups are kept small.
- Depth and time limits follow SSI standards for each age — and we often stay well inside them.
- No breath-hold numbers, records or competition. Success is a calm, happy session.
- Sessions are shortened or stopped at the first sign of cold, fatigue or discomfort.
- We only dive in suitable sea conditions, at our shore-based training site in Kaş.
- A parent or legal guardian completes the medical statement and gives written consent.
FOR PARENTS
Learn together.
Parents are welcome to watch, ask questions and stay involved. Many families also train together: you can join your child’s session or book a parallel course for yourself, and we will plan the days so they fit your holiday.

Questions from families
What is the minimum age?
SSI programs start at age 10 with Try Freediving and Basic Freediver. Pool Freediver, SSI Freediver and the specialties start at 12, Advanced Freediver at 15.
Is freediving safe for children?
With qualified instruction, close supervision, shallow depth limits and no breath-hold competition, it is a controlled and calm activity. Safety habits are part of every session.
Does my child need to be a strong swimmer?
They should be comfortable swimming and in the sea. Tell us about their experience and we will recommend the right starting point.
How deep will they go?
Until age 12 the SSI limit is 5 m. Ages 12–14 can train to a maximum of 12 m in SSI Freediver. Depth always follows comfort, not a target.
Do kids receive a certification?
Basic Freediver, Pool Freediver and SSI Freediver are SSI certifications. Try Freediving is an introductory experience.
What about equipment?
Tell us your child’s age, height and shoe size when booking, and we will confirm suitable mask, fins and wetsuit sizes.
Can I join my child?
Yes. Parents can join a session or take their own course alongside — just let us know when you contact us.
READY?
