An incredibly professional place to learn freediving or take your training to the next level!

I started with a morning of coaching before doing a 1-day crossover to AIDA 2, followed by 3 days for my AIDA 3, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

My instructor, Ramar, is a national multi-record holder, and learning from him was such a privilege. He was incredibly patient, supportive, and clear in his teaching. I felt we moved through the course at a solid pace, and I was so proud to not only meet the requirements but also significantly improve my technique thanks to his guidance.

At Freedive Academy Panglao, everyone truly eats, breathes, and sleeps freediving. The professionalism, passion, and dedication are obvious the moment you arrive. If you’re considering where to train, I can say with confidence: you will be in very good hands here.

5/5 - very nice reef where to do snorkeling, loads of fishes, sardines, and saw a turtle 😍.
And Teo was a great guide and video makers! We’ve now unforgettable memories from this place !

I just finished my SSI Freediving Level 1 course at Freedive Academy Panglao, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience.
My coach Jomay was amazing — extremely patient, always calm, and he took the time to explain everything step by step. As a complete beginner, I had a lot of questions, and he never rushed me. I always felt supported, understood, and in very good hands.

The whole course was super well structured, from the first pool sessions to the open-water dives. And besides being a great coach, Jomay is just a genuinely friendly, positive guy who makes learning fun and relaxed.

During our last open-water session, a woman who was snorkeling nearby suddenly panicked and called for help. Jomay reacted instantly, swam over, and helped her back to safety — calm, professional, and completely in control. Seeing that made me appreciate even more how safe and well-prepared you are with him as your instructor.

All in all, I had an amazing experience and can 100% recommend Freedive Academy Panglao to anyone thinking about starting a freediving course in Panglao/Bohol. As a beginner, I couldn’t have wished for a better place.

A special shout out to their briefing practice that teaches people how to respect marine life. We had a Molchanovs wave 1 course and a 1-hour snorkeling tour with them, and both have been a great experience.

I had a very fun experience! Looking forward to have more classes with you. Special mention to Ms. Ven, Sir Dio and Ms. Kailah for assisting me all the way and making my mermaid dreams come true!
