Water is my element. Your safety and your belongings, my mission.
Experienced freediver and swimming instructor, I operate in the Aare River and Swiss lakes to recover lost objects and help you gain confidence and safety in the water.
Expertise forged in the water, serving the Aare and its users
Since childhood, water has been my natural environment. Growing up in Tunisia, facing the Mediterranean Sea, I first learned to swim on the surface before being irresistibly drawn to the depths. Very early on, freediving and underwater exploration became a passion, then a true specialty.
My journey continued in France within the French Navy in Toulon, where I developed solid experience in diving and operations in demanding aquatic environments. Later settled in the Jura region, I continued my explorations in lakes, open water, and even under ice, strengthening my ability to operate in complex conditions.
However, it is in Bern, within the emerald-green waters of the Aare River, that my expertise truly found its purpose. Strong currents, changing visibility, deep areas: the Aare is a magnificent but demanding river.
Today, I put this experience at the service of:
lost object recovery in Swiss waters
underwater cleaning and environmental preservation
swimming lessons to help you move through the water with confidence and safety
Understanding the Aare, respecting it, and operating safely within it is my profession.
Lost an object in the Aare? An expert may be able to help you recover it
A phone, keys, a watch, or any other valuable item dropped into the Aare may seem permanently lost. Yet in many cases, a quick intervention makes recovery possible.
Specialized in freediving object recovery, I operate in the Aare River in Bern as well as in Swiss lakes and rivers. Every intervention is based on a detailed analysis of the drop location, current, depth, and visibility to maximize recovery chances, even under challenging conditions.
But this expertise is not limited to finding lost objects.
It also allows me to offer guided experiences in the Aare, helping you enjoy the river safely, even if you are not comfortable with strong currents.
Drifting down the Aare, understanding its dynamics, knowing where to enter and exit, and learning how to react in different situations are what make the difference between a stressful experience and a controlled, enjoyable one.
Whether you have lost an object or simply want to enjoy the Aare with confidence, you are in the right place.
