Ocean Based Adventures

Freediving

Freediving

Freediving is more than just holding your breath — it’s learning to let go. To slow the heart, silence the mind, and connect with the ocean in its purest form. With no tanks, no bubbles, and no noise, freediving offers an intimate, almost meditative way to explore the underwater world.


Onboard SV Indie Sky, we offer both introductory coach

Freediving is more than just holding your breath — it’s learning to let go. To slow the heart, silence the mind, and connect with the ocean in its purest form. With no tanks, no bubbles, and no noise, freediving offers an intimate, almost meditative way to explore the underwater world.


Onboard SV Indie Sky, we offer both introductory coaching and guided sessions for Crew. You’ll learn breathwork techniques, equalization skills, and proper safety protocols before scrubbing hulls, diving down lines or exploring reef walls and underwater terrain.


Each descent becomes a personal challenge — not against time or depth, but toward clarity, calm, and confidence. Whether you’re hunting dinner, photographing marine life, or just exploring your limits, freediving changes how you move through water — and through life.


Just throw on a mask and fins, take a single breath, and go deep.

For those who want to go deeper—literally—our scuba experiences open up an entirely new dimension of life at sea. From vibrant coral gardens and sheer drop-offs to forgotten wrecks buzzing with life, each dive invites you to slow down, breathe deep, and witness the ocean on its own terms.

For those who want to go deeper—literally—our scuba experiences open up an entirely new dimension of life at sea. From vibrant coral gardens and sheer drop-offs to forgotten wrecks buzzing with life, each dive invites you to slow down, breathe deep, and witness the ocean on its own terms.


Whether you're already certified or working toward your Open Water certification, we tailor dives to your skill level and goals. We partner with trusted local guides when needed and always prioritize safety, stewardship, and connection to place.


This isn’t a dive resort. It’s adventure diving, seamlessly woven into the rhythm of liveaboard life. 


And while we haven’t fouled SV Indie Sky's props or anchor, our dive-qualified crew have stepped up past expeditions to help our neighbors with these issues.


From curious turtles to cruising reef sharks, it’s a front-row seat to one of Earth’s last wild sanctuaries.

Hunt. Learn. Savor.

There’s something deeply satisfying about catching your own dinner. Whether you're gliding along a reef ledge for spiny lobster or weaving through underwater canyons in search of snapper or lionfish, our expeditions offer the chance to connect directly with the ocean’s bounty.

Hunt. Learn. Savor.

There’s something deeply satisfying about catching your own dinner. Whether you're gliding along a reef ledge for spiny lobster or weaving through underwater canyons in search of snapper or lionfish, our expeditions offer the chance to connect directly with the ocean’s bounty.


We practice responsible, sustainable harvesting—taking only what we need, with precision and respect. You’ll learn how to identify legal catches, refine your freediving technique, and properly clean and prepare your haul.


But the real reward? It comes at golden hour, when your catch hits the pan with garlic, herbs, and—of course—French butter.


There’s a special kind of pride when it’s your turn to cook and you’re feeding your crewmates with something you hunted yourself. It’s raw, honest, and unforgettable.

Surf

Off-the-Beaten-Path Surf Adventures

Trade the crowded lineups and surf camps for something far more authentic. Aboard SV Indie Sky, we chase swell the way it's meant to be chased—by sea.


Our SV Indie Sky gives us the freedom to explore remote breaks that are only accessible by boat. No roads, no resorts, just clean lines peeling across reef or beach with nobody around but your crew.


What to Expect:


  • Uncharted Waves: We study swell charts, wind conditions, and local knowledge to find breaks that rarely see a board.
     
  • Flexible Itineraries: We're not locked to a schedule. If the forecast shifts, we shift with it.
     
  • Dawn Patrol by Dinghy: Get to the break before the wind picks up, with fast access and gear support via our RIB tender.
     
  • Mobile Basecamp: SV Indie Sky offers board storage, hot meals, warm showers, and cold beers between sessions.
     
  • All Conditions Welcome: From mellow points to heaving reef passes, we tailor each mission to your comfort level and experience.
     

This isn’t a packaged surf trip. It’s an expedition for those who want to find their own wave stories—and are willing to venture off the map to do it.

There’s something almost surreal about dropping anchor next to a surf break. SV Indie Sky becomes your beachfront home, the dinghy- your shuttle to the lineup. You wake to the sound of waves peeling just beyond your hatch and check conditions before your coffee’s even brewed. No long drives, no crowds—just a front-row seat to the rhythm of the ocean. Timing your session with the tide and the sunrise, paddling out with no one else around, then returning to a warm meal and a dry deck—it’s the kind of freedom and connection that surfers dream about. It’s not just convenient; it’s magic.

Anchored just off a reeling point break, the scene feels like it’s pulled from a movie. Long, wrapping lines peel down these rocks in mechanical perfection. From the deck, you can watch sets roll in like clockwork, timing your session with the tide, the light, and your own rhythm. Every ride ends with a short paddle back and a glance over your shoulder at your floating home. SV Indie Sky is the ultimate surf basecamp.

DOWNWINDERs

Downwinder Support for Wind & Foil Sports

As we sail between tropical anchorages, SV Indie Sky offers dynamic, mobile downwinder support for a full range of wind and foil disciplines. Whether you’re into kiteboarding, winging, windsurfing, SUP foiling, prone foiling, or parafoiling, we make it easy to chase wind and swell across stunning stretches of ocean — no looping back required.


🛶 Full Support — Stay Safe

  • Catamaran-based staging for smooth launch, recovery, and gear setup
     
  • RIB chase support via our 40hp center console — perfect for rider pickup, safety coverage, or just a quick tow if you fall off foil
     
  • Flexible routing as we cruise between islands, offering multi-mile downwind runs through turquoise water and scenic coastlines
     
  • On-the-water pit crew: Need to switch kites, swap foils, or adjust gear mid-session? We’ve got you. Everything is stored and accessible on board
     
  • Safe, secure storage for wings, boards, kites, and all your kit on SV Indie Sky
     

🌊 Ride Your Line — We’ve Got Your Back

From glassy sunrise foil sessions to windy inter-island runs, we tailor each day’s plan around the conditions and crew goals. Whether you're new to downwinders or connecting long-haul swell lines, we’re here to support — and document the ride if you’d like!

Your gear. Your pace. Your playground.
We handle the logistics so you can focus on the ride.
 

📡 2-Way Comms- Stay Connected

Safety is our #1 priority. For every downwinder:

  • We assign a dedicated spotter on board keeping visual contact with each rider
     
  • We maintain 2-way radio comms with every rider using VHF radios, Milo communicators, or BB Talkin headsets
     

You ride hard — we’ve got your back, from launch to scooping up the last woman or man standing.
