What is Deep Week?
Deep Week is a one-of-a-kind freediving experience that brings together ocean lovers, athletes, instructors, explorers and beginners from around the world for 8 days of learning, connecting and adventure.
Part education event, part ocean festival, Deep Week combines world-class freediving instruction with community, exploration and unforgettable experiences in some of the world’s most beautiful diving destinations.
Here’s a peek into what each day looks like at Deep Week.
Everyday our instructors will hold a variety of workshops on different freediving topics. You are welcome to attend as many or as few activities as you like and choose which workshops to attend based on your interests.
During the workshop times, there will be three different options that will run simultaneously that you can choose from.
Depending on each location, we often have opportunities to go fun diving after the line diving session, either on a wreck, a coral garden or whatever that location offers!

Contrary to our name, Deep Week isn’t about going Deep.
There are no expectations, no pressure and no ego. Whether you are brand new to freediving or highly experienced, the goal is simply to learn, connect, and enjoy the underwater world alongside like-minded people.
We believe freediving should feel accessible, supportive and fun. Deep Week is about safe progression, personal growth, meaningful experiences and building a deeper connection to both the ocean and the community around it.
It’s a place where people come together to train together, learn together and have fun together — both in and out of the water.
Check out the Deep Weeks we have coming up this year.
And stay tuned for new event releases.
