Hi,

I am going to Madeira in December and I wondered if there are any freedivers up there I could go diving with.

Best Regards,

Rik
 
Hi Rik!

I can put you in contact with some spearos from Madeira...i´m sure they will help you find nice places to dive and even go with you for some dives.

But as i said they are spearos...they don't dive just for the fun...they dive for fish or for the fun of caching fish

Will you go directly to Madeira? If you have one or two days in Lisbon we can arrange a dive for you with some freedivers!

If you want send me a PM.

Cheers,
Marco

Dear Marco and Mário,

I will go directly to Madeira, and won't stay in Portugal. I am not planning for any extensive freediving, just some shallow dives and hear how freediving / spearfishing goes on the island.

I will send you both an PM and respond to the given suggestions.


Best Regards,

Rik
 
Hi Marco,

I am going to Madeira in December and I want to do some spearfishing. Could I get in contact with your friends there?
 
Hello Maradona. We are 2 spearfisher from denmark coming to madeira the 15 december for one week- just freediving and spearfishing. If you are there in the same time periode - we cut meet. We are also interrested in meeting local spearfisher - reanting a boat....

Hello
I am the guy going with Thorbjørn to Madeira 15.December-22. December.
We are very interested in meeting fellow spearos or just getting some information on where to dive, techniques and potential dangers.
We are both experienced spearos able to reach depths 20-25 meters.

We will be able to reach all parts of the island accesible by car. If we hook up with 2-3 other spearos we would like to rent a boat and go for some blue water if it is possible.

@Maradona: we will mail you to arrange a meeting. Looking forward to go for some spearing with you.

Best regards
/Joachim - Copenhagen(water temp 7 degrees right now!)...
 
That's great guys I d really like to hang around with you and go fishing. So far, the friend of Mceriero has not got back to me. He is in the island fishing, so I do not know anyone. But we can ask around and we ll give it a go anyway.
I agree hiring a boat will be much nicer. What I know is that it is a tropical place and there are sharks and barracudas around. But it would be better if we asked a local fisherman. We ll see I am very excited I will be waiting for your e mails.
Water temperature in England 9 degrees. Tomorrow I m going for sea-bass. Just finished making a small flasher.
