The AIDA 2 Freediver Course is the perfect starting point for anyone looking to earn their first freediving certification in Lanzarote. As AIDA Level 1 is included within the course, there is no need to complete a try freediving session beforehand or an AIDA 1 freediving course. This freediving course is designed for beginners, and is an internationally recognised freediving and apnea course that provides the skills, knowledge, and confidence needed to become a safe and competent freediver.

Over 2.5 days or 4 half days, you will learn essential freediving techniques, including breathing and relaxation methods, static and dynamic apnea, equalisation, finning, duck dives, and buoyancy control.

Open-water training sessions will introduce you to depth diving up to 12 metres, line diving, rescue skills, and buddy system techniques, all under the guidance of experienced instructors.

The course also includes comprehensive freediving theory covering physiology, the breathing cycle, equalisation, safety, equipment, and the different freediving disciplines. Set in the crystal-clear waters of Lanzarote, the AIDA 2 course is the ideal way to begin your freediving journey and develop a strong foundation in breath-hold diving.

Students should be over 18 years of age or have parent/guardian approval if between 16 and 18 years of age.

Static apnea (STA): 2 minutes.

Dynamic apnea (DYNB): 40 meters.

The AIDA 3 Advanced Freediver Course in Lanzarote is designed for certified freedivers looking to improve their depth, technique, and confidence while expanding their knowledge of freediving safety and performance.

Building on the skills developed during AIDA 2, this advanced freediving course introduces new techniques such as free-fall, Frenzel equalisation, training tables, and pressure management, helping you become a more efficient and capable freediver.

Practical training includes static apnea, dynamic apnea, free immersion, and constant weight bi-fins, allowing you to refine your technique and improve your performance in both the pool and open water. The course also covers advanced freediving theory, including physiology, equalisation, barotrauma, buoyancy, shallow water blackout, the mammalian dive response, decompression sickness, surface intervals, training concepts, and the freediver's code of conduct.

Set in the clear waters of Lanzarote, this AIDA certification course is ideal for freedivers looking to advance their skills, increase their depth potential, and gain a deeper understanding of apnea, safety procedures, and breath-hold diving.

Requirements:

Static apnea (STA): 2:45 minutes.

Dynamic apnea (DYNB): 55 meters.

Constant weight bi-fins (CWTB): 24 meters.

Theoretical exam: A passing score of 75%.

Age: 18 years or older (16-17 years old with parent or guardian consent)

Prerequisite: Completion of AIDA 2 or an AIDA 2 Crossover evaluation if transitioning from another freediving agency.

Cost: €540.

Duration: 4 days, or 6 half days.

The AIDA 4 Master Freediver Course in Lanzarote is the highest level of recreational freediving certification, designed for experienced freedivers who want to expand their knowledge, refine their technique, and safely progress towards deeper dives. Building on the foundations developed during AIDA 3,

This course introduces advanced freediving concepts and safety procedures that go beyond recreational freediving.

Throughout the course, you will develop advanced skills including mouthfill equalisation, , stretching and breathing techniques, training concepts, and deep diving safety.

Practical sessions focus on improving performance in static apnea, dynamic apnea, free immersion, and constant weight diving, while also developing rescue skills, supervision techniques, and a deeper understanding of professional freediving practices.

The theory component covers advanced physics and physiology, including Boyle's Law, Dalton's Law, decompression sickness, nitrogen narcosis, lung mechanics at depth, fitness and training principles, and nutrition for freedivers. Students will also gain a greater understanding of safety management, dive planning, and the responsibilities involved in assisting instructors and supervising other freedivers.

Set in the crystal-clear waters of Lanzarote, this AIDA Master Freediver course is ideal for dedicated freedivers looking to maximise their potential, improve their depth performance, and gain advanced knowledge of apnea, freediving safety, and deep breath-hold diving.

Requirements:

Static apnea (STA): 3:30 minutes.

Dynamic apnea (DYNB): 70 meters.

Constant weight bi-fins (CWTB): 32 meters.

Theoretical exam: A passing score of 75%.

Age: 18 years or older (16-17 years old with parent or guardian consent)

Prerequisite: Completion of AIDA 3 or an AIDA 3 Crossover evaluation if transitioning from another freediving agency.

Cost: €620.

Duration: 6 days, or 8 half days.
