GIRLS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN! Ladies, who is ready for a trip all for you? A place where you can immerse into Caribbean Clear (no really “Caribbean clear”) waters everyday, and swim with the Ultimate Freedivers...the Sperm Whales! We are officially hearing your siren calls for a GIRLS ONLY retreat filled with the ultimate blend of adventure, relaxation, self-discovery, and swimming with one of the largest and probably the coolest creature on earth! All on the enchanting island of Dominica, the “Nature Island of the Caribbean.” 

Thanks to Just Get Wet and Blue Water Element, you will have 6 transformative days on this magical island. 3 of them will be focused on diving with Sperm Whales, and 3 of them will be for freedive training, or on land activities.

Dominica is home to over 200 resident sperm whales, who are accustomed to humans and offer some of the most intimate interactions in the world. There really is no better place for this. There is a strict permitting process that limits the number of boats and divers that can search for these whales, which provides a much more exclusive experience for the divers, and a much healthier one for the whales. In most areas the 'swim with whales' boats harass and overwhelm the whales, but not here. We secured a permit for 6 divers, and we're hoping you'll be one!

In addition to this, the freediving setup is world class. Explore unlimited depth right off a professional freediving platform, which is  just a short swim off the beach. You will rejuvenate your body and mind with yoga and breathwork, and immerse yourself in one of the most biodiverse marine environments on Earth—home to majestic whales, vibrant coral reefs, and abundant marine life. The ocean is calling. Are you ready to answer?

This is more than a retreat—it’s an invitation to reconnect with yourself and the natural world. Whether you’re an experienced freediver or just beginning, this retreat will guide you to master the art of freediving while soaking in Dominica’s unparalleled beauty and aquatic life. With a state of the art freediving setup, expert instructors, and the island’s tranquil, clear waters, and the largest and most social group of sperm whales in the world, you’ll experience growth and freedom like never before.

On land, daily yoga and breathwork sessions will help you build flexibility, optimize your breathing, and deepen your connection to the ocean. Beyond freediving, you’ll encounter Dominica’s magical world of sperm whales, dolphins, turtles, and tropical fish, and have the option to explore its lush rainforests, hidden waterfalls, and healing hot springs.
