Spearfishing can be a demanding and risky activity and has resulted in permanent injury and loss of life. The risks of spearfishing may be reduced by adopting safe dive practices, talking  to and diving with experienced spearfishers and reading widely to better understand the complexities and dangers of the sport. By proceeding you have agreed to assume the risks of spearfishing, freediving and any other activity described on this site. 

  

Sharks are dangerous. Divers should remain vigilant at all times and avoid putting themselves in harms way.
