Spear fishing is as exciting and challenging as it sounds! The Outdoor Recreation staff will show the basics so you can enjoy Hawaii’s undersea world, become an accomplished free diver and acquire the skills needed to catch your dinner.  Day 1, class is held at Hickam Pool and lasts about 3 hours. We’ll go over rules and regulations set by the state, where you can and cannot go, and what you can and cannot eat. Physiology, techniques, training, equipment, knowledge, and safety are topics we cover, and you will hit the water for some target practice as well. Day 2, depending on the skill level, we usually do the first dive in shallow water, 6 to 12 feet deep on then meet back at our boat to discuss the dive. The second dive is in water about 10 to 20 feet deep depending on the group’s ability. Even if you are unable to spear any fish, you’ll have a blast just being out there! You’ll need mask, fins, snorkel, other equipment, and transportation is on us. You’re welcome to bring you own gear if you want.
