About Just Get Wet

Just Get Wet is a San Diego–based ocean adventure company specializing in freediving, spearfishing, and small-group wildlife trips. With a menu of focused experiences — from pool-only beginner freediving to two-day advanced freediving retreats and a Sea of Cortez liveaboard spearfishing trip — the company serves learners and experienced divers across Southern California and beyond.

All programs emphasize safety, skill development, and local ecosystem awareness. Certified instructors lead hands-on spearfishing courses covering breath-hold techniques, fish identification, and sustainable catch practices. Freediving offerings span beginner pool sessions, intermediate courses, an Intermediate Freediver Plus Spearfishing combo, and two-day advanced training that mixes classroom theory, controlled pool work, and open-water practice.

For boat-based adventures, small group sizes ensure personalized attention. The whale watching adventure caps at six guests aboard a fast, stable boat with an experienced captain guiding 2–2.5 hour excursions to observe whales and dolphins. The Coronado Islands spearfishing day trip and San Diego shore dives explore kelp forests, Wreck Alley, and Zuniga Jetty under expert supervision.

Equipment guidance and tailored coaching help participants build confidence and measurable improvements in bottom time, depth access, and relaxation. Specialty offerings include women-only dives, surf survival courses, and pool training sessions that focus on technique and endurance.

Just Get Wet partners with certified instructors and experienced captains to deliver focused, safe, and memorable marine experiences for divers, spearfishers, and ocean enthusiasts seeking skills, adventure, and stewardship. Booking options include single trips, combined course packages, and specialty clinics designed to match varied skill levels and scheduling needs today.
