Any Divers in Rio de Janeiro?

[Hawaiian]

ALOHA from Kauai, Hawaii, USA. I am Hawaiian and LOVE to free dive and spearfish.

My wife and I will be in Rio Dec. 15-Dec. 18th, 2007 and again on January 12-14, 2008.

I am looking for dive tips and dive partners.

Please e-mail me at PueoApo@yahoo.com.

Mahalo (thank you),

The Hawaiian.

Aloha! I guess I'm one of the few residents in brasil, so I will have the opportunity to give you some hints and tips.

In Rio and around there are some nice spear spots. The islands are the best choice and you can easily have a boat rented to take you there.

A few miles southern there are very nice beaches with great cliffs, worth for a try. more south there are a few cities where you can get a boat to Ilha Grande a huge island with lots of nice places.

North from Rio (about 100 miles) there is Cabo Frio an excellent place for a couple of days boat trip, many islands, clear water and lots of fishes.

Take a look at Guarapas Caça Sub - Notícias the brazilan most popular spearfishing forum. There are lot of rio residents who will be glad to take you for a stroll, a dive and keep you out of trouble.

I live in Sao Paulo… and I will be here for you if you need any help.

Good luck and have fun

Hi guys!

long time I don't visit this forum… sorry.
Pastor, you are everywhere!! hahaha!
Robbert, I know Ted only from medfish forum, not personally.
btw I would only peel vegetables if hired aboard in one of Speartrips voyages!!
… well I could clean up and fillet the fishes too… maybe cook some pasta…
but this is as far as I would go!

Hey Giulio,

Based on your avatar I think we'd keep you in the galley so as to not scare the fish!
