Good to know about the Introduction to Freediving & Spearfishing charter

Participants must be competent swimmers and comfortable in open water. The dockside assessment covers swimming, floating or treading water, and relaxed fin swimming.

Before departure, guides cover basic breathing and relaxation principles with no hyperventilation, equipment familiarization, buddy procedures, guide signals, and spearfishing safety.

Begin with snorkeling and water comfort. Shallow introductory dives and equalization follow only when appropriate; speargun handling and supervised spearfishing require guide approval.

Passing the dockside assessment does not guarantee speargun use. Guides determine participation levels and may limit anyone to snorkeling or introductory diving at any time for safety.

All in-water participation, locations, and equipment use depend on guide assessment, weather, sea conditions, and safety.

No fish harvest is promised. Only legal species approved by the guide may be retained.

This package is limited to 4 guests, regardless of the boat's larger general capacity.

Private intermediate and advanced freediving and spearfishing adventures are available on request.
