Purchased a Cressi Speargun from Brad. The service was perfect. He made a life-long customer and I would recommend Rica Freediver shop to anyone is Costa Rica. After the great service I will be planning some tours with them in the future. Thanks!

Great time diving with Brad in Adam. We found a school of yellowfin and swam with a big school of mahi, hundreds of silky sharks and dolphins. Managed to fill the cooler with 3 nice mahi and 2 yellowfin, definitely recommend.

Brad has that special ability to make you comfortable and then to push you. I learned a ton in our half day charter. He demonstrated great respect for this amazing planet as well and is a highly ethical (and skilled) spearo.

Excellent experience getting my level 1 free diver certification. Brad went above and beyond to teach the material and tailor it to every individual’s needs, as well as their unique challenges, and goals. Can’t wait to come back and dive with the team again.

Un excelente lugar para iniciar en el freediving, y sobre todo el instructor estadounidense Brad Stephens es excelente y sus 8 años de experiencia lo respalda, muy buenas clases tanto el teórico, piscina y en el mar. Les recomiendo bastante.

I highly recommend checking out Rica Freedivers. Brad is knowledgeable about the subject and a great teacher of both the theory and skills of freediving. I spent several weeks in Quepos working with Brad, and would recommend taking a course (or three!) to anyone interested in exploring freediving.

I took the Molchanovs Wave 1 course and had a great experience. The instructor, Brad, is very helpful and knowledgable. The atmosphere at the school and with the other students training was always welcoming and fun.

STRONGLY RECOMMENDED! I have been training with Brad at Rica Freedivers for a month now and I couldn't be happier!! I started with wave 1 then feeling really comfortable training with Brad I signed up for wave 2 and 3. Recently successfully passed my PADI instructor and can't wait to take Molchanovs Instructor course as well! Brad is a skilful and experienced instructor. I can definitely see the time he invested to reach this level of professionalism with Rica Freedivers! Fully dedicated to each student he will find the way to teach you his passion of Freediving! Glad that I found this diving center and met this amazing human!
