It’s time for our monthly community beach clean up;
Myself and will be organising this one!

This Sunday 10am, meeting at Red Point picnic area.

We will spend roughly an hour to clean up then afterwards sort our haul to upload the data into the Tangaroa Blue AMDI database.

Red Point is a hot spot for microplastics, so come on down and lend a hand in making our little corner of the world a cleaner place.

Let’s catch up, get our hands a bit dirty for a good cause, and share some laughter and stories as we work together to keep our beaches pristine.

Grab your gloves, bring a bag and join us this Sunday.

Happy New Year Woebe crew! 🩵♻️🌏

We hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and NYE and have been enjoying the beautiful weather we've had over the past few weeks.

2024 was a huge success for our monthly clean ups! Our community grew dramatically, doubling our average number of monthly volunteers. We collaborated with several local organisations - hitching lifts with the police and conducting microplastic surveys. Our sorting efficiency sky-rocketed, with so many more of you legends sticking around to record our haul for the AMDI database. Thank you everyone for your hard work and commitment to keeping our beautiful Bay pristine!

To kick off the 2025, we'll be back at Plantation Point from 9am this Sunday, cleaning up along the beach and in the water. This holiday period has been the busiest I've seen in years, and both Nelson's and Barfleur's beach have been smashed.

Bring your gloves and bags, as well as your dive gear, we'll be running a little competition to see who can collect the most lead sinkers from the water! (We actually melt all of the lead we find whilst diving into freediving weight blocks!)

Help Us Save 5 Sharks Per Boat This Shark Season! 🦈

From 1st January to 31st March, we’re teaming up with to make a real impact. For every person who joins us on an Above & Below Boat Expedition, we’ll donate $5 directly to Project Hiu. That means a full boat saves the lives of 5 sharks each trip!

Why? Our oceans need sharks. A healthy ocean equals a healthy planet, and sharks play a crucial role in maintaining marine ecosystems.

This time of year is peak Grey Nurse Shark season, and these gentle, shallow-water dwellers are perfect for snorkellers to observe up close. Join Captain Dylan for an unforgettable adventure, learn about shark behaviour, and let go of those fears Jaws might have instilled in you. Knowledge is power!

By jumping aboard, you’re not just supporting a local business—you’re also supporting an incredible conservation effort. Project Hiu provides alternative livelihoods to shark fishermen in Lombok, proving that community and conservation can go hand-in-hand.

Let’s make a difference, one boat trip at a time. Book your spot, support sharks, and join the movement!

📅 1st Jan – 31st March

🐟 Save sharks. Support conservation. Explore the wild.

Together, we can create waves of change 🌊

Reflecting on 2024: Our Biggest Year Yet

Wow, trying to sum up 2024 has been no small feat. This year has been monumental for Woebegone Freedive.

We’ve hit milestones we only dreamed of when we started this journey:

Opening Australia’s first dive shop dedicated to freediving and conservation.

Wrapping our boat in stunning artwork by

Expanding our Ocean School to over 80 students and running classes in Booderee National Park.

Hosting incredible trips to Lombok with , led by one of our heroes , and venturing to , where we experienced mind-blowing conditions and 50 feeding mantas—something Leon got to witness firsthand.

We hosted 12 beach clean ups which removed a massive amount of rubbish from our local beaches and bay.

Collaborating with Bannisters Mollymook to offer unique ocean experiences.

Personally, this year was just as special. Leon turned 1, and seeing the ocean through his curious eyes has been pure joy.

To our incredible team—Elizabeth, Liam, Keanu, Chelsea, Sienna, Aspasia, Braedan, Anne and Jan—thank you for your hard work and dedication. A special thank you to Elizabeth, whose energy and passion will be so missed as she begins her journey to study medicine next year.

This whale swim season was one for the books, filled with unforgettable muggings and moments of connection with these gentle giants.

Looking back on our mission, our “why” has always guided us:

•To help people overcome challenges in the ocean through a relaxed yet professional approach.
•To create a sustainable business that works in harmony with nature.
•To inspire a love for the ocean through storytelling, education, and mindfulness.

This year has been overwhelming in the best way, and we owe it all to YOU—our community. Your support, patience, and understanding (especially when Leon is in the shop!) mean the world to us.

Here’s to holding onto our “why” as we move forward and continue living this ocean-inspired dream. Thank you for being part of the journey.

With love and gratitude,
Lara, Dylan, Leon, Red & Pip 🌊

Merry Christmas ocean lovers!

These family photos were taken on our Lady Elliot expedition this August- Leon was just 14 months.

On this particular day the water was super calm, Gatorade blue and thick with feeding manta rays.

Enjoy the festive season & we hope to see you in Jervis Bay this summer.
