1 Week Foraging Food from the Ocean

We spend a week foraging for food in the ocean along the South Coast of NSW, Australia. Dan and my trip continues but this time we are focused on catching lobster and abalone. We forage for them in Jervis Bay, Montague Island and Mystery Bay.
I much prefer the taste of all the sea foods that can be foraged as opposed to speared, netted or caught on a line and having so much time to search for them was such a treat!

Man, I am loving your videos. They were one of the few things that got me through the past week in hospital. I think you have really kindled my want to get back into the water and start rebuilding my life.

I love this 😍 the music made the whole atmosphere seem even more beautiful 🌊🌞

[@AdamFreediver]

My wife will be stoked :) she edits the videos and chooses the music :)

[@Ethicsmusic]

Loving all the videos... I've been looking for that ambient sound music... sounds like Nils Frahm ...I also heard it in pro boxer's training video... does anyone know the name? I think it might be stock music... Much love

[@WR505_Spearo]

What a feed! Mystery bay and that seaweed really was awesome

[@AdamFreediver]

Yeah I was really surprised at the seaweed there to be honest! It kind of stole the show for me.

[@zachtomlinson6558]

Hey Adam, I love your videos and they’re so helpful!! Previously I could not equalise my ears whilst doing the valsalva equalisation, but now I can go out and dive with my friends whilst doing frenzel equalisation.

[@mseamonkey]

When we were at Mystery Bay, I thought the exact same thing about the seaweed! Curious why there are soooo many kinds there

[@AdamFreediver]

We should look into that. It's definitely my favourite beach full stop.

[@EthanYeo1]

Your videos always crack me up Adam 😂 Your edits are hilarious, especially for Dan!

[@paulocosta3642]

OmG! What a beautiful footage! You guys are amazing!

Thanks so much! We had such a blast doing it

Ooh lots of "lato"! Those beautiful seaweeds are a delicacy here in the Philippines!

Are they? I should have tried them!

Thanks Sammy! We had such good days on the water :)

[@serinadelmar6012]

Love your videos so much, so inspiring… and hilarious too! I’ve just got my first set of long fins, birthday style, and just starting to learn free diving so a little overexcited (slight understatement!) 🌊

[@AdamFreediver]

Ah no way! that's awesome!!! Enjoy :) you're going to love it!

[@serinadelmar6012]

Adam Freediver Thank you!! I've pretty much been in the water since my comment :) And already enamoured by the long fins! We also went out on a boat on my birthday and saw a huge sunfish swim right up at the surface, it turned on its side and then disappeared again… just amazing. Naturally wanted to jump in immediately but apparently I'm getting ahead of things! I’m in the Granada province in Spain. Have you dived here? It’s all protected as part of the Cerro Gordo national park, so beautiful. It's definitely a whole new chapter! And I'm so grateful for your channel!

[@canadianfreediver5537]

Great video Adam. That was real funny doing that little cooking bit with Dan.

[@AdamFreediver]

haha thanks bro :) I'm quite the master chef these days

[@tonykoos5986]

Another great video! If people have a speargun handy and they want to mark something on the ocean floor like a hole in surging conditions just shoot to the side of it into the sand, get air and go back down and the speargun should be easy to find floating up.

[@Michael-cf9lf]

That is a nice looking beach.

[@AdamFreediver]

I happen to agree with you!

[@Diegopauel]

Hi Adam! Lucky to be able to comment early on a brand new uploaded video, hoping you'd read this.. Just want to say that you're a big inspiration both in diving and your positive happy character in general! I'd be honored to have you come on a adventure with me on the east coast of Thailand in the Gulf. Wishing you and your family love and strength! ❤ Diego

[@AdamFreediver]

Ah Diego!!! thanks so much buddy! I really appreciate that! I'd love to go on a diving adventure with you! Once the world opens up flick me a message and we can line things up :)

[@Diegopauel]

@@AdamFreediver Wow! Thanks for your reply Adam! I definitely will and I promise you won't regret it.. We have some very impressive dive sites around Koh Tao and stunning scenery in the national marine reserve 🙏 you're also more than welcome to stay at our resort 👌 Again, all the best and keep making those fantastic videos!

[@oliveiradu]

Hi, great video! How much weight you were utilizing to dive in the shallows without floating? I have difficulty when diving at less 10 meters because some fear of use more weight.

[@andrej9476]

Great video. Keep going. What kind of stiffness molchanov fins you have. And how do you compare it to alchemy. I dont know which to choose. Thanks

Is the 3 breath breath up a good idea

not typically. The best thing to do would be to tidal breathe :)

I am new to freediving and currently loving it but I find when I get to about 25 feet my ears hurt enough to cause stress and shorten my breath hold. I was wondering if there’s a way to stop this (if not I have unbelievable respect for your deep dives)

have you tried equalising?

[@omer88f]

I have seen this video about a man (a cult) who exhale half his breath - after repetetively breathing well - and went down for his fishing, in the video the commentator said that he lasted for 4+ minutes and got up to the surface after fishing even though he could have lasted longer, but he don't like to show off.. do you think that this technique might cause a black out anytime?
