A trip designed for all audiences. Despite the notable differences between the modalities of freediving and diving, both share a series of fundamental aspects.
During this week, freedivers will have the opportunity to perfect their technique and reach greater depths under the expert direction of Miguel Lozano, one of the most prominent freedivers in the world. At the same time, divers will also be able to benefit from the experience, acquiring techniques to optimize their efficiency, reduce air consumption, as well as manage stressful or life-threatening situations.
Throughout a week-long cruise on the Red Sea, we will combine advanced freediving theory and practice sessions with recreational diving dives at the highlights of the northern route.
Every day, on board the boat and in a comfortable environment, theoretical freediving sessions will be carried out, ranging from the introduction to freediving to advanced techniques, focusing on different aspects such as breathing, compensation, fluttering, relaxation. , passive freediving diving, lung flexibility, safety and rescue techniques. In addition, guided sessions of specific stretches will be carried out to improve diaphragmatic, intercostal and pulmonary flexibility.
Approximately four dives will be carried out daily, combining buoy and rope training to work on technical aspects, with dives aimed at enjoying and exploring marine life, both in freediving and diving, according to the preferences of the participants.
The planning of these sessions will be carried out jointly with the Nextgen Diving Travel team and Miguel Lozano, with the aim of offering the best possible experience.

Shark & Yolanda Reef
Ghiannis D
Carnatic
Considered by many world-class divers and photographers as one of the best dives in the world, we start from Anemone City where dozens of large anemones with their families of clownfish make the name of this dive make sense. The passage between the reefs crossing the blue with an infinite background creates an impressive contrast when reaching the wall of multicolored corals of Shark Reef, where schools of different fish will mark the way to Yolanda Reef, where the remains of their cargo They mix with endless colorful fish and corals. An incredible dive.
Over the years, the Abu Nuhas reef has caused real havoc to those who ventured to sail the seas near it during storms. An authentic cemetery of shipwrecks where we find some of the most famous of the Red Sea. The Ghiannis D was no exception. The most recent of the Abu Nuhas wrecks gives us the opportunity to enter one of the most famous and photographed engine rooms, as well as have the possibility of receiving a visit from the most curious family of dolphins in the area, forcing us to many times thanks to his kindness we forget about such a spectacular wreck.
The oldest wreck of Abu Nuhas, a true myth in the Red Sea. The passing of the years has taken its toll on its hull, but it has served it as well as the wine it transported, turning its wooden hull into a garden of soft coral and life that is practically impossible to find on any other wreck. Its depth at a maximum of 27 meters, and its easy navigation, guarantees a pleasant, long dive, and the setting for videos and photographs that will be recorded in your mind.
