Soneva Fushi is delighted to reintroduce a\u00a0Freediving Course<\/strong>\u00a0for the peak season (October \u2013 end April 2014), one built on the foundations : breath, awareness, relaxation, safety and knowledge. Some people freedive just for fun \u2013 to look at the fish and corals or simply to relax. Others want to improve their aquatic skills, depth and time or to overcome fear and build self-esteem. Whatever our motive is, we usually find great pleasure in the learning, training and experience of Freediving. And often hidden capacities and potentials surface in so doing.<\/span><\/div>\n
