Why Freedive in Baja?

Baja is surrounded by two very different bodies of water: the Pacific Ocean and the Sea of Cortez.

The best part for beginners? You don’t need to be an experienced freediver to enjoy the underwater world.

A good beginner course will teach you the fundamentals of breathing, relaxation, equalization, body positioning, and safety before taking you into deeper water.
