Born from Passion: Depth Junkies Freediving
Depth Junkies was founded in 2023 by Jack and Samy, Fueled by a shared passion for freediving and a desire to create a unique learning experience. We believe in prioritizing a relaxed and comfortable environment where students can truly develop their skills. Our goal is to empower you to safely reach new depths at your own pace. Freediving isn't just about going deeper; it's about doing it right. Jack took his first Freediving course in 2017 in Malta. He was instantly hooked and found a freediving Club in Scotland where he went every week to Pool Training. In 2018, Samy took her first course in the UK and joined the same club and that's where we met. We both went to pool training's almost every week for the next couple of years. Since then we have made numerous freediving trips to Dahab, Lanzarote, Croatia, Malta and around the UK. In 2022 we decided to take a year out and we headed for Dahab. We completed our Instructor course and began teaching. It is amazing to share your passion every day with others and be a part of their journey. Never did we imagine that we would now be living in Dahab and spending our days teaching our passion in the beautiful Red Sea, but here we are. So come and join us, its rather beautiful out here.

Samy just loves all things Ocean. She started as a Scuba Diver however once she learned about Freediving Scuba had to take a back seat. She later did some work as a professional mermaid diving in various Sea Life Aquariums in the UK.
Samy loves the ocean life and taking underwater pictures. All of the images on this site were taken by her.
