alright, I live out in dubai, only 17 tho, have ben spearfishing for about 2 years now with mates of mine, we have been down to musandam a couple of times, dibba (overfished), Telegraph Island (nice), next to Kasab Golden Tulip (good fishing), i really enjoy it out here but have never managed to get out spearfishing on a boat, which is really anoying cause we never hit into huge fish. best i shot off dubai breakwaters is an 8kg baracuda. heres a picture

Great thread , Im new to Dubai and new to spear fishing. I have shot a few fish in PNG and would love to get together with some guys here in UAE and get out some time. Any advice on guns? what type is best? and where to go for a hunt? Pity about all the BS with the fishing law's, Im Canadian 36 yrs old, no boat but willing to travel a bit to meet up with someone that knows what they are doing.
Cheers all

welcome to Dubai,
guns usually used out here are mostly euroguns, some that are really serious (boats, blue & deep water) use sometimes Reef. i personally have a cressi comanche 90 (back up) and my main gun is a Piccaso centuary 110. i find this is more than enough for the spearfishing i do! they sell guns in Al Samak, not been there myself but am told it is good expensive, or you can go to Go Sports for the new Cressi sub or Al Hamour on the beach road opp. Lime Tree cafe and next to Sports Market. places to hunt, have a couple of special spots that i like but generally the break waters are the best place if you dont have access to a boat, i have been to musandam a couple of times but it is illegal there so you have to be really really careful! also, there have been cases of people being caught, fined and had all gear conviscated in Dubai... thankfully i have not yet been caught! touch wood
enjoy!

Ah!! that's the BIG question.... I suggest you get someone who speaks Arabic well with an Emirati accent to call the Ministry and get an answer. (Get it in writing).

I know a resident Emirati who works in the abu dhabi secret service and he made a few phone calls when i asked him about spearfishing in UAE, he replied that it is completely Illegal in all of Abu Dhabi, so i asked him about fujairah or Dubai, and he said he cant get that information because different cities have diff governments and that i had to ask the governments in those state.
Basically Im sure there is no Spearfishing in Abu Dhabi, but does anyone know about Fujairah or Oman??? Im dying to know...

Arent we all buddy... I havent ever been in trouble with police for spearfishing, but i know people that have had all their equipment taken and their boat impounded in dubai for spearfishing, i think its down to what the police man you are dealing with, think;do they agree with it or not? and if they feel the need to cause you trouble and inconvenience at that time... i knwo it doesnt help but it is still just an unanswered question in Dubai, that unfortunately no one can answer to :P
