About the Halifax Freediving Club

​

The Halifax Freediving Club (est. 2018) was formed to facilitate the development of freediving in Canada’s Ocean Playground into a vibrant and inclusive freediving community. Our priority is to promote a safe and fun freediving culture and build a positive reputation for the sport. The HFC aims to provide opportunities for training and certifications for its members while fostering respect and protection for our ocean environment.
