Hi Everyone,

I probably don't utilize DeeperBlue as much as I should, but some of you may know me as kjflyfish on Spearboard and Kolt45 on other spearfishing/freediving websites, especially on the New Zealand Spearo's Corner website. I'm from Florida and have been spearfishing extensively for many years now and have competed in spearfishing events in Florida, North Carolina, California, and most of all in New Zealand where I have lived for the last four years.

I'm currently backpacking in Europe and will soon be making my way toward the Med. I do not have a set itenerary and I'm looking for people to meet up with and spearfish across the Mediterranean. At the moment, the loose plan is to start in Spain and make my way East, ending up in Turkey, but I am very flexible and can change plans daily. I hope to meet as many fellow spearfishermen as possible and build a network in this awesome part of the world.

If you or anyone you know would be interested in hosting a fellow spearo for a day's diving, please don't hesitate to get in touch!

Clear waters,
Kolt Johnson

I am in Cyprus, Northern part (North cyprus). PM me if you want to mark this place in. How deep are you diving? Gotta run, man. PM me if you want to visit these places. It might be a last touch before you go to turkey because these two countries (turkish republic northern cyprus and turkey) are very close to each other. Ciao
 
Here's a big open question: Where would be some of the best places to shore dive in the Med?
 
Any country you visit will have sweet spots. The depth/the way to get there will greatly vary from place to place.
