Exclusive freediving experiences

The waters around the Azores islands are known for their intense blue with a great richness in biodiversity, being considered a hotspot for marine megafauna. 

Get to know their secrets in an exclusive way, far from the crowds and safely guided by Janaína, a freediving instructor and Marine Biologist with 15 years of experience in maritime tourism. 

On board “Ono One” we always have a qualified skipper and snacks/water are provided. All activities include insurance. Time flexibility is recommended to allow us to choose the day/s with the best weather conditions.

If you’re not a certified freediver you can still enjoy these experiences by previously undertaking a one-day introductory course to freediving (Apnea Experience).

Exclusive Freediving Experiences are carefully designed for 1 or 2 persons but ask for a quote if you are a small group of 3 or 4 persons. 

Weight belts are provided and the rest of the equipment can be rented. Prices are per experience. Residents in the Azores have 20% discount. 

Check the different options available and if you have questions get in touch!
