What is Freediving? Highlights From Roatan’s Caribbean Cup
For those who love the water, a wide variety of water based activities and sports are available to them. From practical activities, such as fishing and treasure hunting, to the competitive, such as boat racing and synchronized swimming or just enjoying the water for its own sake, a life around the water can be filled with an array of specialized endeavors. One water activity that has begun to play an important role in Roatan is freediving. What is freediving? Highlights from Roatan’s Caribbean Cup can shine a light on this relatively new competitive sport. Freediving Origins Freediving probably originated because of necessity. People living near large bodies of water could access new sources of food and other resources if they were able to hold their breath and dive down to the bottom. Those who were able to stay underwater longer were able to harvest more and be better providers for their families. Competitive Freediving People have probably been competing at freediving ever since the practice began. But records started being kept in the 1960s by the US Navy. Navy scientists were interested in how long people could hold their breath and survive at extreme depths in order to help submarine sailors. Once records were kept there were always people looking to beat them. The Caribbean Cup Roatan Freediving Competition The Caribbean Cup Roatan Freediving Competition is an annual competition that began in 2013. Organized by the Roatan Freediving School & Training Center, the contest is sanctioned by the CMAS (Confédération Mondiale des Activités Subaquatiques,) and AIDA International (Association Internationale pour le Développement de l’Apnée.) Caribbean Cup 2019 Events Four events were featured at the 2019 Caribbean Cup: CWT (Constant Weight With Monofins,) CWB (Constant Weight With Bifins,) CNF (Constant Weight With No Fins,) and FIM (Free Immersion.)

In the men’s division, Russian Alexey Molchanov, reached a depth of 110 meters in the CWB event.

Sun, Fun & Treasure? Visit Port Royal, Roatan
Most tourists who are familiar with the island of Roatan will speak about places such as Coxen Hole, West Bay and West End. This is entirely understandable as Coxen Hole is the largest city on the island, West Bay is home to the island’s largest resorts and West End is a popular funky village replete with bars, restaurants and dive shops. But far fewer tourists make it to the East End of Roatan. And that’s a shame, because the East End has its benefits as well. If you’re looking for a quieter, more relaxed and possibly more authentic alternative to the busy western side of the island, you might consider taking a short drive east. The area has a long history of pirates, 17th century battleships and ancient artifacts. Looking for sun, fun and treasure? Visit Port Royal, Roatan. Port Royal was favored by buccaneers because of it’s well sheltered and easily defended harbor. From the surrounding cliffs it’s easy to see any ships coming for miles. Port Royal is currently favored by tourists for that same stunning view. But what’s left today is only a shadow of what once was. Present day Old Port Royal is home to the ruins of a former British fortress and townsite. In the early 1900s, this was the area where treasure belonging to 18th century English pirate, Edward “Ned” Low was found. The hunt for Ned Low’s treasure didn’t end there. In the 1960s, treasure hunter Howard Jennings, came to Roatan’s East End equipped with metal detectors, naval survey maps from the British Museum and the author of The French Connection and The Green Berets, Robin Moore. According to Moore’s novel, The Treasure Hunter, published in 1974, the pair came away with gold nugget, silver bars and valuable necklaces. Will you be so lucky? Well, even if you don’t find precious metals you will find miles of unspoiled, white sand beaches, quaint fishing villages and a much more traditional way of life than found on the west side of the island. And to be honest, that can be a priceless treasure in and of itself. Resource by : https://www.prlog.org/12765887-sun-fun-treasure-visit-port-royal-roatan.html ...read more
