We’re bringing you an exclusive freediving retreat just a short drive from Mt Gambier, SA — and it’s the longest running freedive retreat in Australia!

Kilsby Sinkhole isn’t just any freshwater dive spot. With 40m of crystal-clear visibility, it’s one of the best places in Australia to explore the underwater world. Add in ocean diving, spearfishing, and some of the clearest freshwater ponds you’ll ever see, and you’ve got the perfect adventure playground for freedivers of all levels.

Whether you’re looking to earn your PADI certification (Level 1–2) or just want to immerse yourself in an unforgettable underwater experience, this retreat has it all.
