Something new for us at Asia Divers: We\u2019re very excited to announce that we\u2019ll now be teaching the PADI Basic Freediver and the PADI Freediver courses.<\/a><\/p>\n

Plus it\u2019s a whole new beginning of really cool gear! For more information contact us at instructors@asiadivers.com\/cnt<\/a> and see course details on our Freediver Courses<\/a> page<\/p>\n
