Servicing: Illawarra, South Coast and surrounds, and East Coast Australia.

How did you establish your business?

Once we discovered a shared love for the ocean, teaching and making a difference to others, LegaSea Freediving was a natural progression for us – it’s an expression of who we are and what we’re passionate about!

What does your business pride itself on?

Sharing our passion for life and the ocean with others. Providing people the opportunity to experience something new and challenging in a very safe and accommodating environment.

Tell us about your biggest successes and challenges?

It is through our biggest challenges that we’ve had our greatest success. We created a business with the mission to bring depth to people’s lives. We do this by exposing our customers to new experiences.

Whether this is swimming with Grey Nurse sharks, holding their breath for minutes on end, freediving to the bottom of the ocean, finding a place of peace and calm in a five-degree ice bath or being guided through a breathwork session. These experiences give people the opportunity to discover what it takes for them to begin learning how to be comfortable being uncomfortable. It’s these experiences that alter our customers view of life and what is possible for themselves.

What do you enjoy most about running your business in the Illawarra?

The simple fact that we get to contribute to and give back to our local community – it’s really what it’s all about, right?!
