Service Description

If you are ready to explore deeper open water environments, then the SSI Freediver Course is the key. After completion you will have the skills and knowledge to allow you to plan and safely conduct dives to depths of up to 25 metres with your buddy. Mulberry Marine Experiences offer this course as an upgrade to the Pool Freediver course. Why would you choose to do this? If you complete the first part in the colder months you can develop your skills at the club pool and open water sessions to make the depth progression in open water even more comfortable. This upgrade works by adding two sessions in Open Water to the Pool Freediver Course you have already achieved. These are held in the sea at Selsey, West Sussex and other sites along the South Coast like Chesil Beach. Working with your SSI Freediving Instructor we will progress your depth on the line and ask you to perform skills from depth. If you are interested in completing the course from start to finish not as an upgrade, please contact us to discuss options. Is there a minimum age? You need to be at least 12 years old. Junior Freedivers need to dive with a certified adult or professional until they are 15. Do I need my own equipment? Only as mask and snorkel, we will provide everything else you need. We have a full range of masks and snorkels and will conduct a full fitting at your equipment workshop. How long does it take? We run the upgrade across one day with multiple sessions. What is included? Digital Manual Academics workshops Practical breathing class Two confined water/pool sessions Digital certification card on completion Equipment hire (you will need a mask and snorkel set) Instructor time Everything you do help us do a little more so thank you.
