So there are a lot of different options when it comes to spearfishing charters. I think the two main differences are you can go on a daily trip, you go to a nice place, we set a nice hotel for you, and then we just spend the day diving. It can be half a day, it can be 12 hours, it just depends on how keen you are. And then you also have the liveaboards, which are a completely different experience, something that I really advise people to try at least once and usually, they take no less than a week. In my opinion that should be the minimum, because you know it always takes you a little bit of time to get used to it, especially if it's your first time, and you don't want to make it too short, because by the time that you're getting the hang of it, then you're going back. So usually it starts from one week to two weeks, we've done up to four weeks and that's something that I feel you should try. Of course spearfishing it's such a complex sport, you can do so many different kinds of diving and techniques, but usually on the trips you kind of divide into two general areas, we either do bluewater hunting or reef diving. So blue water, usually it's offshore, sometimes you don't even see the shore, you don't see the bottom usually, it's quite deep waters, and even though there should be structure, we always look for places where there's upwelling, a lot of times there's a lot of bait and birds and action, but it can also be quite slow. It's a kind of spearfishing where it takes a lot of patience and most times it's an all or nothing.
Bonds That Last For A Lifetime
For me, the biggest thing about these trips is the relationships that you create along the way. I do believe that you get to know someone quite well when you're traveling, and, you know, it's easy to be nice in your daily life, but when you spend a lot of time in the same place, let's say you're on a liveaboard for like three weeks, all of those filters go away, and I feel you create bonds that will last for life.
