The Messinian Gulf drops steeply just off Kalamata, giving deep, calm water close to shore and a long warm season. It has become a base for freediving training camps and competitions in Europe.
In season: May–Oct · Peak: Jul–Sep
Boat or shore training sessions on lines, warm water in summer and a lively town. Conditions are calmest in the morning.
Join a training camp or course based in Kalamata. Start with a certification course, and add depth training with a coach and buddy.
