About Us

Apnealogy Logo

Apnealogy was founded in 2018 by passionate Freediver and Spearo Gerrie van Niekerk.
Born out of a passion for water and the underwater world the Apnealogy.com website became a platform to share that passion, grow the sport and be with you in your element.   

"Growing up 7 hours away from the coast, I only got into spearfishing and freediving much later in life. I was originally introduced to the sport while on holiday with a good friend and even though I didn't manage to land a fish or lobster I was still hooked.
It was only when I moved down to the coast a couple of years that I really got into it.
Now I'm in the water freediving our local wrecks or spearfishing from shore, kayak or boat every chance that I get."
