Spearfishing is legal in Belize, when you are free-diving or as we put in Seafood hunting. The Law and regulations for spearfishing in Belize with scuba equipment, is limited only to hunting of lionfish.

Other regulations would apply to catching some marine species only when they are in Season, again this is for spearfishing while free-diving..

Hunting and Island R&R

Spearfishing in Belize is done mainly of the patch reefs near the Cayes. We will snorkel in shallow waters looking for our prey. In some cases we may encounter a lionfish, kill it!, is nice grilled.

Deep down you will find lionfish, you should take of trip a go scuba diving spearfishing for lionfish. This is one way to rid our reefs of the invasive species. San Pedro, Ambergris Caye and Caye Caulker may also offer spearfishing, which will main be done on the reef. Here in Placencia you have the opportunity to spearfish in different types of environments.

Gear up and head into the sea from the shore and possible hunt along the mangroves or snorkel on of many patch reefs system. Hunting conch will put you on some vast seagrass beds, where you can simple dive down a pick one up with your hands.

Live the life of a lobster fisherman for a few hours as we snorkel and hunt lobsters or spearfishing for fish. If we find a conch, we pick it up; or a good eating fish, we spear it for the grill. Once the snorkel/hunt is done, we relax on the beach or in the water as the morning’s catch is being prepared and grilled.

Then we enjoy a seafood buffet from our catch. After lunch, we can either relax for the rest of the day or snorkel some more, depending on how you feel. Rum Punch is included, but you have to order it before the trip starts.
