If you thought breath-hold diving was exclusive to a privileged few highly trained individuals, think again.
Ocean Encounters founders Fred Buyle and William Winram will take you places you never dreamed of diving. Both avid world-class breath-hold divers, they have taken it upon themselves to share their passion for the underwater world with the rest of us.
They will bring breath-hold diving courses to your door, take you on live-aboard freediving cruises and organize expeditions for the chance to breath-hold dive in the company of large marine animals.
In their many upcoming activities, you will find one that is tailored to suit your needs, whether you are a complete beginner wanting to improve your comfort underwater or a dedicated breath-hold athlete looking to fine-tune your technique for your next competition.
The more adventurous amongst you will participate to shark encounters for an opportunity to discover the natural behavior of these amazing creatures in their own territory.
In addition to organizing courses and expeditions for the public, Fred Buyle and William Winram regularly join expeditions for the purpose of scientific research on large marine animals. From tagging sharks in the wild on a silent breath-hold to documenting unique animal features through photography and video, they contribute to the advancement of ocean preservation.
