    This freediving school has built something special around expert instruction and genuine community. The instructors, particularly Brittani, Chris, Viv, and Charlie, consistently earn praise for making nervous beginners feel comfortable while teaching solid technique. Students appreciate how they balance safety and fun, never rushing anyone beyond their comfort zone. The courses include classroom, pool, and open water sessions, with instructors providing helpful video feedback so you can see your progress in real-time. What really stands out is how welcoming everyone is. Multiple reviewers mention the positive vibe and supportive atmosphere that keeps people coming back for advanced courses and group dives. The staff clearly knows their stuff when it comes to gear recommendations too. Whether you're completely new to freediving or looking to level up your skills, the team seems genuinely invested in helping you succeed. Several reviews note the strong sense of community, which seems to extend beyond just the courses themselves into ongoing training sessions and charter trips.

    WOW! The Just Get Wet Team is INCREDIBLE! Curious about getting into spearfishing? Want to become a freediver? Interested in the charter trip of a lifetime!? Just Get Wet is THE WAY TO GO! We took the Escaped out to San Clemente Island and had a BLAST! Chris is an expert captain who knows San Clemente Island inside and out, Gretchen is an incredible photographer and chef who kept us fueled and smiling, and Matt was an awesome deckhand always ready to help. They showed us stunning kelp forests, helped us land delicious fish, and made the whole trip unforgettable. Can’t recommend them enough!
