Your freediving instructors in El Hierro, the treasure of the Canary Islands

Borja, half of 1501,

I'm from the Basque Country, where a few years ago I left many things behind to live more outdoors, going in and out of the sea, going up and down the mountain as much as possible.

Life ended up taking me to El Hierro to work as a diving instructor for a while and try freediving. Since that first course several years have passed where, little by little and in a great journey, I have managed to advance to become a freediving instructor and create, together with Jorge, a project where we will not only show you what is below the surface, but also above it, through its heights, paths, forests and cliffs.

Jorge, the other half of 1501,

Coming from the peninsula, from dry lands, grown up in the asphalt jungle, I developed my love for the sea 14 years ago, feeling that you are not from where you are born but from where you are made. I have been lucky enough to visit seas and oceans, and I was able to share with cultures living side by side with the sea. A connoisseur of marine life, relaxed and patient, I work with a smile as a way of life. Among my hobbies are philosophy, the sea and chess.

Apart from being your instructor, I am your skipper and your person to trust.
