Spearing the azores
permalink
I'm racing to Horta in the azores early next month and if the wind gods are kind I will have a few days spare there to drink and relax!
I'm going to bring my gun but does anyone have hints/tips/contacts.
I'm not into Big Game spearing but seeing these beasts would be fun.
Dont intend to shoot anything that wont fit on a BBQ

European spearfishing supplies, if they are still around, used to organise trips over there. They are based in UK, google it and ask for colin or paul.

The race I am doing ends up at Sao Miguel so a bit south of you but still looking forward to it. Start is tomorrow and we should take 8-10 days depending on weather and breakages. Any good watering holes in ponta del Garda???
I'll catch up when I get there

Thanks
My crewmate and skipper (its a two handed race) has never been spearfishing so I'm taking both guns. Race starts in 1 hour so better get going
