Who is the Safari for ?
Our spearfishing safaris are for spearfishermen and spearfishingwomen of all levels interested in spending a relaxed day spearfishing with an experienced freediving and spearfishing instructor. They are also an opportunity to see how a spearfishing excursion should be conducted from a strategy, sustainability, and safety point of view.
All our spearfishing courses and activities aim at certified freedivers. Due to efficiency and safety concerns, it is important that the spearfisher masters basic freediving techniques. The best way for us to verify this information is through a freediving certification.
What to expect from a Safari ?
The ultimate goal of our spearfishing safaris is for everyone to have a great time: learn new techniques, enjoy nature, do some sport, try new equipment, explore amazing spots and discover Malta from another point of view. A spearfishing safari is one of the best opportunities to enjoy the beautiful Maltese waters and coastline.
Catch some fish would be obviously the icing on the cake. Although its always nice to go home with some fish, we will not shoot at every fish crossing our path but will adhere to sustainable spearfishing, being selective regarding species and sizes.
How is a typical Spearfishing Safari?
We will start this amazing adventure at our center in Mellieha, where we will have a small chat about your experience and expectations. We will have a small informative session about our target species, minimum sizes of fish, and Maltese regulations for you to have all the important information clear from the very beginning.
We will then prepare the spearfishing equipment and will drive to the best fishing grounds of the islands. We will decide the fishing spot according to your level, expectations, goals, and preferences. This decision will also rely on the sea conditions on the day. If you don’t have spearfishing gear, or couldn’t travel with it, no worries as we have everything you need.
Before entering the water, we will brief you on the dive site, the most rewarding spearfishing techniques, and the best strategies to follow. We will make sure you have all the equipment needed and that all is in order.
Your guide, who is also a freediving instructor, will always be by your side. He will be with you underwater and the surface to provide you with guidance such as the best access routes, from where to approach the target species, how to dive more efficiently, how to work as a buddy team to maximize your chances, etc. The guide will also be your safety and take underwater pictures of you while you spearfish.
Expect snacks and drinks after the safari and hopefully some fish for dinner!
