Hey Jon there are no typical restrictions in Morocco that I knew of from native spearos........... for a start up spot tryout "Taghazout" about 20km out of Agadir on the mountain highy way. Enjoy the rock & reef formations out there which are directly located after the sandy beach. I believe you might do some rock hopping if necessary.

I hope this info. would be useful, I wish I had it on GPS though.

Hi Marwan....... I dunno but I might have heard about you from some spear buddies..... are you Marwan who speared the "tawina" on 40m ?

hahaha oh my God, have i become famous!? funny how that works, the tawina wasnt caught at 40 mts, more like 10 meters, but it weighed 40 kgs, and it was 3 of us not me alone
so which common friends do we have?

Well maybe I got mixed up with all the figures ...... I guess we know each other but havent been introduced before..... Yes why not being famous !! You are I guess I'm Hisham Nagi another spear buddy to Ihab & Ahmed Naga & I heared the tawina story from Ahmed about 3 or 4 weeks ago........ news travel fast right ? Anyway it is a pleasure after all to meet you here in deeper blue....I dont spend that much time on the internet due to work related issues but its good to see you here. I hope we can meet up for a bash one day soon.

Cheers

I am due out in Taghazout Feb 2011. Would be great to meet up with someone or be pointed in the direction of someone for some spearfishing. Please get in touch if you know where I could go or who I could speak to.

Thanks!
