Making Spearfishing Less Intimidating

I have teamed up with renowned blue water spearfishing guide Anthony Dooley to offer one week, all inclusive spearfishing experiences in Puerto Rico. These trips are operated by Anthony’s Life Below The Surface charter service with safety as a priority and over 15 years of local knowledge.

Spearfishing is a phenomenal opportunity for any outdoorsman to literally “dive” into an entirely new world of hunting. These trips include three days of offshore diving and additional classroom time spent on freediving technique.

Go Spearfishing

These are small group trips (3-4 guests), so they can be tailored to your experience. The goal will be blue water wahoo, but we can target other species based on the group’s comfort and capabilities.

This type of hunting is a real adventure. I’ve travelled all over, hunting and guiding almost every big game species in North America. The adventure of chasing some of the largest and fastest fish in the ocean is one of the truest hunts left.

Prerequisites

  • Participants should be comfortable in the water and snorkeling, at a minimum. It is best if they have some freediving experience. Even a short local freediving course in your area will help you on the trip. We can advise you on options.

  • Seasickness can be an issue for some students. Contact Cliff if you are concerned about this. He has a routine that helps mitigate seasickness for himself and most clients.

  • Contact Anthony or Cliff to discuss your experience and comfort in the ocean. Because these are tailored experiences we can accommodate most anyone, but it is ideal if we book groups of similar skill level.
