What is it all about?
Completely new experience that will change you and your usual view of yourself and the world around you. Our luxury yacht will anchor in a picturesque place near the reef, where families of dolphins live and where we will spend seven days with them. We will learn to dive, swim with dolphins (a lot), listen to lectures by a freediving instructor or marine biologist.

It will be a great company, bright sun and unlimited sea overboard!

Each morning will begin with a landing with the dolphins, and each evening will end with a swim in the sea after sunset, when it is impossible to see the horizon and distinguish the stars in the endless sky from the myriad luminous accumulations of plankton under the water. You will be saturated with the smell of the sea and will feel like its inhabitants - free, joyful and feeling your limitless potential.

If you love snorkeling and ever dreamed of “chatting with dolphins” after breakfast, then you should come to us. Special training is not required, and underwater swimming skills are not required. It is enough just to swim confidently in the open water and your impressions will be no less than those of experienced freedivers. After all, dolphins are known to be more willing to communicate with positive, open and curious people, and not just with those who have the best swimming skills.

There is no better reason to finally try freediving.

    «I do freediving because I enjoy it a lot. Freediving changes people. Freediving helped me become myself. To who I am today. Freediving changes consciousness.

    Freediving teaches us patience and acceptance.

    We go from simple to complex, step by step towards the goal, so that through this huge, beautiful underwater world in all its fullness and beauty, we can comprehend and better understand ourselves.»

  • Alesya Verina
    Kinesiologist, master of body practices
    «For me, a trip to the dolphins is a feeling of returning Home, the quality of sensations in the body and the state next to them gives a feeling of complete merging with what the body is.

    Freediving and a lot of active time in the water expands everyone's understanding of breathing, it is such a positive experience for me that I look forward to every trip as an encounter with something that does not pass without a trace and touches the very heart.»
