Two Day RAID Freediver Course

Your two day freediving certification course is a fantastic introduction to the world of freediving. (Note: if you prefer, we also offer the RAID Foundation Course as a starting course. This takes place over one day and allows you the option to complete the Open Water Freediver course at a later stage, if you wish).

Prior to attending the practical elements of the RAID Freediver course you will have a short theory course to complete in your own time at home (or anywhere you like!). You will also have access to our online video tutorial library containing more than 18 recordings made by the Go Freediving team, to help you improve your confidence and technique before the practical elements of the course.

All kit and wetsuits are provided and our courses are held at the beautiful location of Vobster Quay – a purpose built inland dive centre – so we can guarantee no tides, no waves, no currents, and fantastic visibility due to the spring water. It may sometimes rain, but the diving conditions are always perfect and our courses are never cancelled due to bad weather or sea conditions.

We also have the highest instructor/student ratios on our RAID Freediver courses so, coupled with our very personal approach, you’re free to progress at your own pace. Taught by some of the world’s most experienced instructors and providing unrivalled materials and support, no other course offers such a comprehensive package or wealth of experience.

Our instructors make sure you never exceed your own limits or comfort zone – you set a pace that you’re comfortable with.

By the end of the weekend you could be diving to depths up to 20m in the most relaxed and safe manner possible. You’ll dive submerged boats, trucks, cars and planes, through shoals of beautiful fish and learn new skills to take your freediving to the next level.

Info: Your RAID Freediver course is a certification course and begins when you book your place.


When you book, you will receive everything you need to know about the course, our suggestions for preparing, as well as your theory work and information about accommodation and logistics.


All of your course materials are accessed ONLINE and they’re kept up-to-date by RAID, so that after your course you’ll have lifetime access to the very latest guidance and information.


Home study means you can familiarise yourself with the basics at your own pace and will mean more time for you in the water over the weekend of the course.


We will also provide you with access to our full library of online freediving video tutorials which can be watched at home before or after your course.


You must complete the theory and pass the final exam before the date of your booked course or you will not be allowed in the water.
