About Ben O'Brien

A man of many things, but right now, a student who is missing the sunshine and (not so) warm waters of Southern California.

An Affinity for Freediving

There are not many things you can do to completely remove yourself from the outside world, at least for a brief moment. Free diving is one of those activities that allows you to release yourself from the struggles of a long day, and to seek solace under the rolling blue waves of the ocean. Beneath the waves, you never know what you'll see. The lack of parity is part of what makes it so addictive. One day the reef may be barren, with baitfish and the odd kelp bass. Another day the reef will be overwhelmed by life. Though no matter how boring the dive may be, a bad day under the waves is better than a good day on the land. I’ll always return to the waves!
