Amazing! Loved every minute of my training.

But my instructor, Yuri made me feel very comfortable and was readily answering all my questions. Freediving UAE is a great place to not only get your certificate but also meet a great deal of like minded people, beginners and experienced freedivers alike. The weekly trip to Fujeirah is something I now constantly look forward too.

The best place in Dubai to practice freediving pool disciplines (classes organised twice a week), followed by weekend sea diving trips in Fujairah.

Freediving UAE brings a several important things to the table that you seldom find in comparable clubs.
1. Quality teaching that is truly a notch above the rest: AIDA courses are... read more taught by Yuriy, who is not only a regular judge at freediving competitions across the world but have also been a practitioner of freediving for more than a decade. The man has and ocean of experience, but what truly stands out is the patience and commitment when he transfers these skills to students. I have done AIDA2 course with him and what really struck me is how he works with each person at their own pace to get them to the milestones needed to be certified for that level. Once you have completed a course with him, you truly feel able, comfortable, and confident to do the dive.
2. A Real Passion for Freediving: Yuriy has a sincere love for freediving. My experience with his business stands in stark contrast to the experience I had with a different company when I did my Scuba course. Freediving UAE is not just out to get your money. There is a genuine interest to cultivate a love for the sport and to make sure you are technically equipped.
3. Social Interaction: You will see that several people who has left review use the words “freediving family”. I can vouch for that! One of the great aspects of this group is that you meet and stay in contact with people that share the same interest of diving.

Im a fairly seasoned freediver at an intermediate level who has dived in several places and I have to say freediving with Apnea Pirates aka Freediving UEA in Fujairah was... read more surprisingly pleasant. The water condition in Nov was calm and temperature at 27-29 degC was great for a 1.5mm wetsuit. The highlight however was freediving with Yuriy who is very experienced and encouraged me to try new things to fine tune my technique. Most importantly, during my deep dives, Yuriy made me feel very safe and assured. Overall excellent experience and would recommend it to Freedivers of any level!
