Mental strength, willpower, a positive mindset, you name it, all these life skills can be forged and nurtured, to become stronger. In the end, it’s a way of thinking, behaving, a way of being.

The benefits of freediving in Costa Rica are not limited to improving the physical health of its practitioners, its contribution goes far beyond that. The increase in the ability to relax and manage stress is another of its main advantages.

When our face meets the water, new sensations begin, including peaceful moments and as we continue to submerge, our heartbeats drastically decrease, and a sensation of infinite peace come over us.

At this moment any worries we had on the surface dissolve and there is only us and the silence of the depths. While we descend, we must remain practically immobile and without making sudden movements until we reach our goal.

The exercise of Freediving for surfers empowers our concentration, security, and self-confidence. These elements, fundamental to cultivating a healthy mind, will be mastered, and strengthened as the intensity of the training increases.

This is the moment when the mind control exercise really begins because the CO2 levels are already higher and the respiratory stimulus increases, so the desire to breathe intensifies. That is when this sport becomes difficult because when we are desperate to return to the surface, we consume more oxygen, so the return must be as even and relaxed as possible.

Upon reaching the surface, that first breath is as if we swallowed life instead of air. Everything becomes clearer and makes you feel like you can surpass any goal in life. It makes you feel stronger physically and mentally.

Now that you know all the benefits of freediving in Costa Rica and you know the incredible sensations it unleashes, do you dare to practice it?

Join our unique experience. We promise you’ll have the best memories of this sport.
