Freediving is the practice of diving underwater without the use of equipment, relying solely on holding one's breath. It is a captivating sport that unveils the depths of human potential. Going beyond the confines of conventional sports, freediving blends scientific, artistic, and spiritual elements. It fosters sensitivity and awareness about the importance of preserving our seas and oceans, upon which humanity relies.

ROATAN FREEDIVING offers courses for all levels, from beginners to instructors, as well as daily training with optional coaching. Roatan Freediving School & Training Center also provide freediving (as well as scuba diving) experiences with sharks, along with tours to explore reefs and wrecks.

Located in the Caribbean Sea, Roatán is surrounded by crystal clear waters that are calm and warm making this island one of the best venues for freediving in the world. Part of the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef, the second largest reef system in the world, you can discover a great diversity of marine life and underwater walls that drop-off to hundreds of meters only a few swim strokes away from white sand beaches.

Roatan Freediving School and Training Center, the founder and organizer of the Annual Caribbean Cup since 2013, has also hosted four World Championships. Furthermore, we are delighted to announce that Roatan Freediving School and Training Center will be hosting a CMAS WORLD CUP event as part of the CMAS FREEDIVING DEPTH WORLD SERIES, which is set to be an annual event starting in 2025.

TESTIMONIALS

  • The Bay Islands of Honduras are where I learnt to freedive, and hold a special place in my heart. I take every opportunity I can to return to Roatan for training and competing, where the conditions are reliable and the recreational diving is fantastic.  You can set a depth PB in the morning and then go shark or wreck diving, or just explore pristine and protected reef in the afternoon. The Caribbean Cup is not just an elite and highly professional event, but always one of the most fun and social events on the calendar.

  • Roatan is a special island, full of underwater life and amazing people. I had most of my best memories there with so much fun and amazing energy! I found in the Roatan Freediving School not just very professional safeties and instructors, but also very good friends to share our love for the Ocean. The Caribbean Cup is one the greatest competition ever.. You can compete in one of the best freediving spot of the world and enjoy the marine life so much, from the shore too... The water is so blue, warm and wonderful!

  • Roatan offers some of the best conditions for deep diving you can ever dream of: great depths close to shore, no currents, warm crystal clear waters.. And on top of that, a great Caribbean atmosphere. I spent some of my best training years on the island, reaching new depths and PBs. Roatan Freediving will give you the tools you need to progress safer and better.
