Hello everybody,
I plan to visit Turkey in August/September 2018 (Enez/Aegean Sea/ European Part of Turkey) and I am interested in spearfishing. I want to know if it is allowed to go Spearfihing from shore (as a foreigner) without any licence?
I read some articles about fishing/spearfishing in Turkey and iam a little bit confused, now. However it would be great if somebody could help to get more informations about this topic.
If I need a special license for spearfishing maybe you can tell me where I can get it from?

Thank you very much

It's a bit late but you don't need any license for spearfishing. Just you can't spear grouper (allowed the white, goldblotch and mottled) and can't dive nights. Light is not allowed also.
 
Hey Conger,
Are you still in Turkey? I don't know if you live here or are visiting. I'm looking for someone to go out with. Let me know if you are around.
