Ocean Tigers was founded by one of the very first AIDA Instructors, Benoit Frachet. Ben grew up in Nice, France, and started freediving in 1997, just a few years after AIDA was formed. From a very young age, Ben fell in love with the sport and ended up traveling around the world sharing his passions. With his Instructor trainer certification, in the Cabo San Lucas area, Ben and Ocean Tigers offer decades of freediving instructional experience from casual to formal freediving in AIDA until instructor certification. We have the honor to be able to offer you the first AIDA instructor courses of the history of Los Cabos
Prior to forming Ocean Tigers Dive House, Michael Guild, the other founder, also ended up falling in love with the sport. In a search for proper training and education, Michael stumbbled upon Ben in Cabo San Lucas. At the time, Ben was one of the few AIDA Certified Instructors in all of Mexico. Afterwards Ben and Michael became friends; And thus, Ocean Tigers Dive House was born.
Why freediving? Many have asked. Why do you want to hold your breath until your body is screaming for air and see how far you can go, when you can strap a scuba tank on your back and go as far and stay underwater as you want? Well, freediving is not at all like this! It is not about your body screaming for air and not about suffering for lack of oxygen. Freedivers don’t come back from a dive looking like they are about to suffocate, but most of the time they break the surface with a big smile stamped on their face.
Why are they smiling? That is hard to explain to people who have never tried it! The feeling of gliding in the blue water, the feeling of being at peace submerged in this big vast liquid world, the feeling of becoming a sea creature, the feeling of belonging that makes us almost remember our real aquatic origins; all of this condensed in a 1 or 2 minutes experience, makes it very hard not to smile!
