We loved our time with Freedive Nusa and recommend their school as the best in Indonesia for the health & beauty of their freedive sites and the talent of their staff. Always a beautiful experience with Kirill & Hamza! скрыть

As someone who had never free dived before, I was initially hesitant to join, but I am now excited to continue diving in the future.
Kiril, our guide, curated an incredible experience for us. He took us to all the best dive spots and always knew where to find the most amazing animals. We swam through trenches, drifted in currents that made me feel weightless, and encountered magnificent coral reefs at every turn. We had the privilege of diving with manta rays, turtles, sharks, and even spotted dolphins from the boat.
Kiril was an exceptional teacher and provided beginners like myself with the fundamental skills necessary to free dive safely. Throughout the entire trip, he ensured our safety and comfort, making the experience all the more enjoyable.
Overall, I cannot recommend FreeDive Nusa and Kiril enough. This trip was truly unforgettable, and I cannot wait to dive with them again in the future. I will definitely be doing the Level 1 course soon. Thank you for an incredible experience! скрыть

As a surfer, I wanted to gain more confidence in my breathing and breath hold underwater. I took wave 1 and 2 courses with Sabli. It exceeded my expectations.
The course is well thought, progressive and gives you in depth knowledge on key techniques. I later on took equivalence courses in other schools than Molchanov but it did not match the level of quality and detail I had here.
Sabli is an amazing instructor who will encourage you and help you push your limits, yet always in safe conditions. He has a unique freediving and spearfishing experience, and will share with you his tips. He provides advice tailored to your abilities and goals, and coaches you like a true friend. He is a real mentor.
Overall, the whole freediving team at Freedive Nusa is amazing, kind and dedicated to make sure you live a unique and personal experience.
The facilities are really beautiful, and everything is made to make you feel at home, confortable and relaxed. Equipment is good quality and well maintained. They can arrange accommodation at partner homestays which are also very comfortable, convenient and intimate.
The training in the ocean is unreal : you Freedive in the Wallace lane. Water is rich with fish and visibility is incredible. The experience of freediving in the infinite blue ocean between Bali and Lombok is scary but magnificent, and in the end unforgettable.
After your training you can take a manta trip with them, with possibility to have a professional photographer to shoot you. Everything is well organized, with a briefing on safety but also on dos and donts with the mantas to ensure the trip is respectful to wildlife. This is the perfect way to end your stay : freediving alone with the mantas at 10m deep while everyone else is snorkeling at the surface is a life changing experience, and very rewarding.
Thank you to all the team at Freedive Nusa who made this possible !
I will come back sure!

Special thanks to Hamza for carefully taking us step by step in safely exploring our bodies' potential - and being honestly surprised by what's possible. And yes, early morning mantas trip was amazing - including the drift dive at the wall as a next spot (here special thanks goes to Ganesh - incredibly positive spirit)! You could tell that people working at the school are passionate about freediving, and they also take safety seriously. It was a great pleasure to feel part of this community for a few days. Definitely coming back. Thank you ❤️ скрыть

It was a spectacular adventure, with loads of freedom to explore and lots of niche diving that you are highly unlikely to experience on a scuba boat. We also did several of the classic dives that Komodo offers. The drifts are a blast underwater life mind blowing.
We also visited the Nusa Penida centre before the trip and everyone there was very welcoming. Knowledge and advice was shared openly and kindly, even though we joined no dives on Nusa Penida. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Thanks so much to all of you and I hope to join you for more adventures soon❣️ скрыть

The trip is full of breath taking places, all accessible for beginner level freedivers. Its a perfect mixture of water and land (hikes) activities. Kirill has wide knowledge of local fauna and flora, culture, history and is also well connected with the communities which allows for a very unique, exciting and educational experience.
Every day has yoga/stretching, diving and/or hikes, local food and (as expected from freediving trip) plenty of rest and chill time allowing to interact with other like-minded group members.
I came back home with hundreds of photos, amazing memories and new friendships! скрыть

Amazing organization, professional stuff, great welcome upon arrival, lockers for the belongings, good facilities at school, gave us all the equipment, mask, wetsuit, fins. We rented a go pro and filmed lots of footage, go pro rental is 350k. Safe boat trip to manta point, saw a big manta and filmed good videos. The weather conditions however were not the best, cold and big waves. Everything was well organized, and they sent us the link for downloading the videos straight away! This is a great trip for snorkeling. For improving your freediving skills I would choose something else. скрыть

They really know how to make the experience unique, whether you are snorkeling or freediving.
The most important thing: Safety is their top concern at all times, and the organization from Freediving Nusa allows you to just relax and enjoy the ride.
You'll be given all the information you need to know what to do and when, and how to make the most out of the experience.
The facilities in the school are designed to provide the best service. Gear, showers, places to rinse gear and cameras, towels, sea sickness tablets, sunscreen, water, they really thought about everything needed to enjoy the during AND after a water adventure.
Kirill leads this school and he makes an immense difference, as a Molchanovs Instructor Developer, he ensures the highest quality standards not just for the school, but also for the adventure trips.
His crew follows his lead and example. They are absolutely amazing, very passionate for the ocean and its conservation, and highly trained water people.
Having been in Nusa Penida for over a decade now, they really know the good places and the right times, making the experience unique. No other tour can provide what they do.
I'll visit them every time I'm in Nusa Penida. Leaving some pictures of the Amazing places we visited, some of the things we saw, and of how safe one feels when diving with them!!! скрыть
Awesome freediving В июне 2018-го мы, deep-people.info побывали в незабываемом фридайв-сафари по островам Индонезии.

Начались наши фантастические приключения на острове Nusa Penida в школе фридайвинга Freedive Nusa , где многие из нас получали SSI freediving level II или просто отрабатывали уже имеющиеся навыки, тренировались под руководством тренера-инструктора и хозяина школы Кирилла Попова.
Школа расположена в трёх километрах от причала на западном берегу острова в десяти шагах от моря с очень богатым коралловым рифом.
На территории школы есть просторные беседки для треннингов, лекций, брифингов и тп, опреснительный бассейн, сушилки и склад для оборудования. Так же предлагается небольшой выбор снаряжения, (я приобрёл отличную маску взамен своей старой)
Очень понравился учебный процесс и личность преподавателя. Кирилл весьма продвинутый спортсмен и волевой человек. Вся информация, треннинги и инструктаж были поданы очень доступно, познавательно, вежливо и корректно. Это относится как к классным занятиям, так и непосредственно к упражнениям в воде и самим дайвам.
Весь процесс тренировок, рекреационного снорклинга и фридайвинга, с выездом на дальние споты, и собственно ныряния организован мегабезопасно, удобно и с высоким уровнем сервиса.
После отработки статики на мелководье нас небольшая моторная лодка забрасывала вверх по течению на несколько километров на глубокую воду, где мы вывешивались с буёв и ныряя дрифтовали соединённые в плавучую систему. Причём лодка неотступно следовала за нами поотдаль и моментально реагировала на сигналы. Безукоризненный сервис от локала-лодочника, очень приятно! Вообще, чувствуется уважение и дружел#бие местных к приезжим.
После занятий на глубине предлагается снорклинг в дрифте над рифом, ближе к берегу, где на глубине 4-10 метров растёт очень разнообразный риф.
Тихоокеанское течение сильное, около 1м/с позволяло дрифтовать над рифом; на одной задержке дыхания проходить десятки метров на бреющем полёте над разноцветным коралловым ковром! Я очень и очень впечатлён этими полётами. Рекомендую всем фридайверам обязательно испытать этот тип подводного полёта в полном релаксе.
Сам остров Нуса Пенида очень богат крышесносными ландшафтами, и после обеда в одной из прибрежных кафешек мы либо выезжали на дальние дайв-споты, ливо посещали удивительные пляжи, скалы, храмы, пещеры, водопады и природные ванны.
Около острова обитают огромные скаты-манта!
Приятно, что накануне встречи с этими морскими гигантами в школе Freedive Nusa
прошла лекция о подводной жизни коралловых рифов, которую прочла Lilian, представитель природоохранной организации marinemegafauna.org и мы шли на встречу с этими восхитительными существами уже подготовленными.
Увидеть мант оказалось очень просто - они в изобилии носятся вдоль скалистых южных и юго-восточных берегов острова фильтруя планктон на мелководье.
Жили мы недалеко от школы небольших тихих бунгало среди палмовых рощ в очень спокойной и мирной атмосфере.
Далее мы попрощались с гостеприимным Кириллом и переправившись на Бали отправились самолётом в морской заповедник Комодо.
Наш тур по архипелагу заповедника Комодо провёл замечательный знаток Индонезии Ян Тычковский, которому хочу выразить огромную благодарность за безукоризненную организацию экскурсии и всесторонние знания о истории игеографии, быте и религии, природе и цивилизации, флоре и фауне Индонезии. Ян тоже фридайвер и продолжал вести группу даже в воде и под водой!
В Комодском заповеднике мы перемещались и жили пять дней на большой лодке посещая удивительные острова и дайвспоты ныряя среди очень богатой подводной фауны. Повидали скатов-мант, акулу, черепах, оленей, кабанов, хигантских драконов острова Комодо, встречали рассветы и провожали закаты с великолепными ландшафтами этого заповедника.
Очень рекомендую всем любителям природы, фридайвинга, экзотической Азии, спланировать ваше путешествие на острова Индонезии и довериться Яну и Кириллу в организации тренировок и отдыха.
Благидарю! скрыть
