FREE DIVING & SPEAR FISHING TOURS
There is a growing movement for the purity, the renaissance,
the eco-bonding, and the intensity of freediving. You
float on the surface, breathing deep and slowly, watching
the bottom 40 feet below you...In tune with your body,
you begin to slow your heart rate down....100...90...80..70...65...55
beats per minute....

With a last completely full breath, your feet rise up
out of the water and their weight above its surface
begins to thrust your body downward. You take big, almost
stiff-legged kicks, very slow frequency, but with large
amplitude. You almost try to sleep your way down to
the bottom, staying as relaxed as possible, exerting
the minimum amount possible. Twenty seconds later you
are moving along the bottom about 50 feet deep, effortless
and free, watching the antics of damselfish, triggers
and the constant schools of mangrove snappers among
the bright hues of sponges, gorgonians, and complex
coral colonies. You glide along at close to twice the
speed you could have traveled with scuba gear on, but
with virtually no exertion. Your fins are close to twice
as long as the sluggish versions made for most scuba
divers, and amazing flexibility of them allows huge
thrust with little muscular contraction. You begin to
imagine the efficiency of function a fish or dolphin
must realize with their superior hydrodynamic designs,
and wonder why you took so long to experience this natural
euphoria. Just ahead of you a 25 pound hogsnapper changes
color from sandy beige to orange , and heads in your
direction. You instantly become a human targeting mechanism,
calculating his trajectory, speed and potential directions,
and then reach out to take aim...Snap. ..One 35 mm photo

most spectacularly colorful environments on the planet!

You tilt upwards and begin a slow frequency, big amplitude
kick toward the surface 50 feet above you. You stay
relaxed, you maintain a slow steady kick, and the surface
approaches. You hit the surface exhaling hard through
the snorkel, and the fresh taste of air has never felt
so good. Your body feels somewhat heavy all over, from
lactate developed throughout your body as it was forced
to power you with anaerobic metabolism. You now pay
back the oxygen debt, converting the blood lactate to
a form of blood sugar (pyruvate), and your muscles begin
to "sing" with new energy and they feel great.
It’s a perfect workout. Your focus and concentration
improves with each dive, and the euphoria of the activity
keeps you compelled towards several hours of more free
dives until exhaustion suggests you retire until your
next opportunity on another day.
