Early morning light cuts across black lava and cerulean water as you step off the quay and into the island’s steady current—Lanzarote’s Atlantic swell both partner and test for the diver intent on depth. This freediving training session runs from a local dive center on Lanzarote, where instructors use cables, buoys and controlled weight systems to guide certified apnea divers deeper under supervision.
Difficulty

Duration
3 hours
Fitness Level
Should have moderate to strong cardiovascular fitness and prior freediving experience; comfortable with repeated breath-holds and surface recovery.
Wildlife
History
Lanzarote’s shoreline is the result of relatively recent volcanic eruptions; the island’s fishing heritage shaped local dive culture and small, practical harbors used by training operators.
Conservation
Local operators emphasize no-touch policies, reef-safe sunscreen and proper ballast handling; support operators who follow marine protected area rules and avoid disturbing benthic habitats.

Bring your Apnea certification
This session requires an Apnea license—organizers will check certification before using cables and weights.
Hydrate and rest beforehand
Proper hydration and a light, easily digestible meal will help your breath-hold performance and reduce fatigue.
Protect your ears
Practice equalization on the surface and descend slowly—ear problems are the most common reason divers stop sessions early.
Use reef-safe sunscreen
Apply biodegradable sunscreen before arrival to protect marine life and reduce skin irritation under a wetsuit.
Freediving wetsuit (3–5mm)
Keeps core temperature stable in cooler months and reduces oxygen waste while holding breath.
winter
Long-blade freediving fins
Provide efficient propulsion for controlled descents and ascents.
Freediving mask and low-volume snorkel
Low-volume masks simplify equalization and reduce jaw strain during long dives.
Freediving computer or depth gauge
Records depth and surface interval data to track progress and increase safety.
