Sardinia spearfishing

Thread Status: Hello , There was no answer in this thread for more than 60 days.
It can take a long time to get an up-to-date response or contact with relevant users.
Hi Azapa,
if you go back to north Sardinia - Isola Rossa, remember to visit Vignola and Saragosa rock.
 
Mauro, i know vignola beach, but can you tell me where is saragosa rock?
 
Of course, Jonny,
the "Secca di Saragosa":




This picture is taken from Vignola to Monte Russu, after, more left, Capo Testa.

Thanks Mauro wow great to have a local spearo online! i'd be very grateful for any more advice or suggestions..
Is there a good map that you can suggest using - we struggled last year using the 'tourist' maps which just didnt have any of the useful smaller roads on them. Might resort to print-outs from google earth lol.
 
Use GPS, on land and at sea. Also I am available for the indications. I live in southwest Sardinia. Old (and closed) mines, sun, wind, sea. Perahps the most savage of Sardinia.


Gutturu e Flumini (Canyon River)





Oristano Gulf (from south to north)





S'Aschivioni (Slave Point)





Sant'Antonio Mine

Looks amazing Mauro - is that your boat?
I like your 'sardinian' flag too lol

i've just bought a 'learn italian' cd which i play in the car, so watch out Sardegna:
gli inglesi stanno venendo

also found a good road map - part of the 'touring club italiano'; map 15 in case anyone else is interested...
 
is that your boat?
Yes Jonny, is my rib.

gli inglesi stanno venendo

A small correction:
gli inglesi stanno arrivando

The "venire" verb they curretly use to indicate a sex orgasm!!!
Ah, libertine.
 
Nice boat Mauro! How is spearing in the South? Very deep and small fish? Post some of your fish for us to see

The mine: the Italians even make great looking mine buildings!
 
Nice boat Mauro! Thanks
Very deep and small fish? You are very close

The mine: the Italians even make great looking mine buildings!
My family: three generations of mine workers

Hi Foxfish, I'm a office worker (Service manager of business organization and staff training), my company is called IGEA SpA, we're operators of environment restorage.
The last lead & zinc sardinian mine (Masua - Iglesias) is closed in the 1997, today just sightseing. When needed I do the guide in the Montevecchio Mine - Anglosarda tunnel.
 
Thanks but can you tell me more, do the shafts date back a long time & how were they dug, what depth & why are they not worked anymore.
Sorry for all the questions, I have an interest in old mine works.

Ok Foxfish, I can give you all the infomation but I need a long to write in English, sorry.
 
Hi Mauro (or anyone else), i read that it is possible to snorkel over ancient Roman ruins/columns off the shore from Capo testa - NE corner - do you have any more info on this? any idea which area they are in?
2 weeks and counting...
 
Like in James Bond ?! What's that film where he stashes an oxygen bottle in some aquatic ruins then uses it after being used as trolling bait ? Some beautiful bird involved too...

Sorry, I do not know. I dive in Capo Testa one time only, in my life.
You speak of these, I suppose.

Hello !
Thank you Mauro, Jonny250, Spaghetti...etc for all these informations about Sardinia.

I'm new on this forum. I'm from Brest, France. I practice spearfihishing for more than 20 years (16 years old) and I am going to Sardinia between the 19th and th 26 th of july (I land in Cagliari).

We haven't decided where to go yet (we are two couples, my friends don't dive), I wanted to know more about Sardinia.

I already get lots of informations thanks to you. I think we'll go north-east, perhaps north two...

Here are my questions :
- are there good spots between Dorgali and Olbia ?
- are there good spots between Cagliari and the south (around Setti Ballas) ?
- how long does it take to drive from Cagliari to Olbia ?
- Is there someone who would be interested in a team mate during this period (25m-30m deep max) ?

If you come to Britany (Bretagne) please tell me, we have big bass and pollack were I live (see some pictures)

Thanks in advance

Ivan
