In the early days of the emirate’s history, pearl diving was a common way to earn a living. Without the help of tools or equipment, the divers had only their natural skills and abilities to descend and retrieve treasures from the bottom of the sea. The Fazza Championship for Freediving continues the tradition, as athletes and diving enthusiasts gather to watch athletes take the plunge. The competition consists of two categories- one for professional free divers and one limited to UAE and GCC nationals.
