So much to do on Matamanoa Island Resort

Freediver

Freediving is an entirely different way to experience the underwater world. You’ll dive deeper, stay down longer, and feel part of the ocean itself. If you’ve always wanted to enter the underwater world quietly, on your own terms, staying as long as your breath allows, then freediving is for you. Taking the PADI® Freediver course is your first step toward discovering why freediving is becoming a popular way to explore beneath the waves
