All our training courses include a section on spearfishing safety, with technical practice. This last element is essential to know to dive in pairs safely!

We organize spearfishing outings in La Ciotat and surroundings, it will be at this time that you can come back (possibly) with your fishing at home!

We return to the port at noon for your lunch break, just to enjoy a little rest before the afternoon session. Our instructor will discuss with you the spearfishing equipment and in particular the rifle as well as the Mediterranean biodiversity.
