Type of Trip: Women-only land-based cenote freediving retreat
Certification: No freedive certification is needed. Must be Open Water SCUBA certified to scuba dive the cenotes for our one-day diving.
Have you always wanted to learn to freedive but never found the chance? Always wanted to swim with whale sharks but never had the opportunity? Dreamed of being surrounded by passionate ocean-loving women but never knew them?
Now's your chance. This may be our strongest girl-power trip yet.
Freediving has the power to change lives, the feeling of diving without a tank is simply incredible, and there truly is no other place to do it quite like the cenotes of Yucatan. Alongside a group of empowering women Girls that Scuba will be taking a group of females and introducing them to freediving for the first time in one of the most magical places on earth... will you be joining us?
Private condo located in the middle of the jungle but strategically located just 2 miles away from downtown Tulum. We have the whole property rented for Girls that Freedive. You will have your own large private room with a king-size bed, A/C, full bathroom, fully equipped kitchen with a coffee machine and coffee, living room, and roof garden with sunbeds. Catered delicious and nutritious breakfasts every morning (excluding one morning we leave early for whale sharks) and 4 x catered alfresco dinners. Oh, there's also hot tubs and two pools in our private condo!
Our retreat is centred around our apartments and the cenotes, this isn't a trip to party out in Tulum, we will have a few visits into the town for group dinners, but tend to mainly stay in our own slice of paradise away from the crowds. Please be aware of this when signing up that it won't be a chance for you to explore Tulum town or beach area.
Please read our cancellation policy before you sign up to any Girls that Scuba trip
