Mário Carvalho

from young age has a strong attraction for the ocean, he was always comfortable with the aquatic environment and curious about what the sea covered below the surface. After some scuba diving experience, he decided that this appetite for the oceans was in the freedom and fluidity of movement, he began the discovery of freediving.

With more then 20 years of spearfishing experience in the Azorean waters, mainland of Portugal and even the cold waters of the United Kingdom, he has a good knowledge of species, habitats and a huge sense of responsibility for the preservation of the aquatic environment.

Now living in Vila Nova de Milfontes this Underwater Sports Coach, Freediving Instructor and Freediving Youth Instrutor by AIDA, he finished his training in Tenerife, at Apnea Canarias, (School of Miguel Lozano, one of the deepest divers in the world), finally sees a dream come true and hopes to provide great experiences to all who want to know What is freediving?

Owner of a past in which passing knowledge to others was an almost daily task, he now uses all that experience to make this sport and way of life known and open the doors of the submerged to those who seek us.
