About Your Trip

Spearfishing in Playa del Carmen & Cozumel

Step into one of humanity’s oldest fishing traditions—hunting fish underwater on breath-hold (apnea) using a speargun or polespear. With crystal-clear Caribbean water, vibrant reef systems, and seasoned guides, this is one of the most thrilling and immersive ways to experience the Riviera Maya.

For Beginners

If you’ve ever wanted to try spearfishing, this is the perfect place to start. Our certified freedivers and passionate spearos will teach you proper breath-hold techniques, safe hunting practices, and how to approach fish with confidence. It’s a fun, hands-on, educational experience designed to get you comfortable in the water and excited about the sport.

For Experienced Spearos

Already skilled and looking for your next challenge? Let us guide you to the region’s top trophy grounds. The Riviera Maya offers an incredible mix of environments—shallow and deep reefs, shipwrecks, and blue-water hunting. Tell us what you're after and we’ll tailor the day around your goals.

What’s Included

- Expert spearfishing guides
- Top-of-the-line equipment
- Fishing License
- Water and Soft Drinks
