I've been a scuba diver for 25 years and couldn't understand why anyone would freedive when they can dive with a tank and spend much more time underwater. After meeting some new people who are divers and also freedivers, they peaked my interest in freediving. Together with two of my friends and we took the Padi Freediver class at Deepsea Freediving school. The experience was absolutely incredible. We learned valuable skills and had lots and lots of fun! Carlos and Hugo taught us yoga/breathing practices to achieve relaxation for static and dynamic apnea, free immersion and constant weight freediving. The buddy and safety procedures are critical skills to know so that you can dive deeper, stay longer and most importantly be safe. Highly recommend!

We flew from New York to learn freediving AIDA 2 with Carlos Costes over the Christmas Holidays. Carlos is a freediving world champion and became a friend. We did yoga at his place in the morning before freediving, use his boat to the freediving platform, etc. Before we flew in, he sent us online resources to prepare and train ourselves at equalizing techniques. We fell very supported. Carlos and Hugo his wonderful colleague are extremely patient, kind, safe supportive and also fun. We didn't manage to reach our goal of 16m for Aida 2. Only reached almost 10m as we had problem equalizing ears using the frenzel technique. But we are now passionated with freediving and keen to learn more to reach 16m next time. We learned all the freediving techniques as well as rescue and as spearfishers, we feel more safe than ever when freediving. Before we came, I researched the best place in the world to learn freediving and this is one of the top best. Also Bonaire is an amazing place in itself, we enjoyed shore diving as well and will surely come back.

Carlos and Hugo are the best dive instructors we have ever had. Professional, experienced, pedagogical and patient. We did yoga, relaxation, breathing techniques, static and dynamic apnea, free immersion and constant weight, all in just three days.
Very good skills that now allow us to enjoy freediving and also benefit our normal scuba and snorkeling experiences.
Highly recommended!

My kids (7 and 9 years) finished their freedive Course today. I can recommend this to all parents who want to give their children an amazing experience. It was taught by Hugo. He is a great teacher. With lots of patience and a good sense of humor he introduced my 2 energy balls to yoga, relaxation, Freediving to a depth of 16ft, a lot about Bonaire’s underwater world, all in a very safe way!
Thank you so much Hugo, keep up the good work!

I live on a sailboat and do a lot of SCUBA diving and snorkeling. I took took this course because I had time on my hands and thought that it might improve my snorkel skills. The course exceeded all expectations! The instruction was first rate. Both instructors were professional, good natured, and fun to be around. The dive experience likewise first rate. Safety was taken seriously and taught well. I am now a much better free diver while snorkeling, and indeed the skills pertain to SCUBA as well. I cannot rate this school high enough.

I had never been interested in freediving before, but though I would give it a try to challenge myself. What an incredible experience!!! The team at Deepsea Freediving is so encouraging and supportive, their coaching is fantastic and they made for a great experience. It was so good, that my children decided to sign up for a youth Freediving course after my own and they loved it as much as I did. Excellent service and experience. We highly recommended it!

I came to Bonaire for 2 weeks to train with Carlos Coste and Hugo Lampe. They are exceptional instructors, professional, and safety orientated. I came to Bonaire to not only train my personal skills but to assist with an instructor course to become a better instructor to help my future students. I learned a lot from them and am already planning on making my way back to the blue classroom and dive the platform. Highly recommend to divers of any level. This is the place to become a better freediver!

Want to learn from the best in the World??? This is the place to do it!!! Carlos & Hugo epitomize the word “Professional”! From day one, this has been a great experience with plenty of fun too! I came down for a week to participate in the AIDA 3 course & improve my technique & skills prior to a second week of Instructor Training. Both Carlos & Hugo taught me various different methods to improve in my weaker areas. It’s very humbling diving amongst these two Pros & very rewarding to absorb & learn all they have to pass on from their vast amount of experience. I am extremely grateful & honored to have had this opportunity, and I would recommend training here to any Freediver serious about the sport- 10/10 110%!!!

I wasn't sure what to expect but I was up for the journey. Turns out, I got way more than I could ever have imagined. Freediving is for everyone. Carlos and Hugo are excellent instructors. We are so very fortunate to have the world-class calibre of Carlos Coste on Bonaire.
Freediving has opened my eyes to a whole new world of breathing and being. I no longer feel like an observer like I do when I snorkel and SCUBA dive. Freediving allows me to be part of the underwater environment, if just for a short while.
Life-changing experience as I'm now hungry for more learning about breath and the physiology of breathing. thanks to the passion of Carlos and Hugo. Looking forward to more freediving practice.

We really had a great day with deepsea freediving school. What an experience, Hugo is very relaxed and takes you step by step to push your boundaries, without crossing your boundaries. It is relaxing and intensive at the same time! Highly recommended!
