Just to let you know Jonny,

I went to the place where we were chased off the palm..to take a little look see. Remember i told you about that massive grouper i saw...about 15kgs...i think...cause there can't be that many of them...but this guy on the beach fishing with a rod and reel...caught a massive grouper. The head was about a foot long and about a foot or just under wide.

bastard
 

which place you were chassed off? the Palm jumierah?:martial
 
guys, i might come to dubai around January...is it a good time for spearing? where can i go for some good shore hunting? or better yet rent a boat to go out? i have all my gear, but wont brong out my speargun too much hassle, i could always drop by al sammak or al sayyad for yet another speargun though

Hey Johnny,

Nice catch there! Haven't seen you for a while, are you still diving or busy studying for your exams? I've been out regularly with Oz (when he can be bothered to wake up) and have caught some decent size stuff. I'd post some pictures but not sure how! We've also managed to score a little zodiac which is useful...

Give me a bell if you're up for some action next weekend.

hey guys,

First post. Moved here form FL a few months ago, thought I would pop in and say hello. Hello. My boat got here recently and my brothers and I have been out diving every weekend so long as the seas are under 5ft. just tryign to track down the spots (getting numbers and the like) If any of you guys dive between AD and Dubai let me know. If there are any dive trips - I am definately in.
 

hey there, we are practising freediving (no guns) quite often and also teach courses if you want to improve your breath hold and depth.

Divas in Dubai » Freediving Courses Information - Abu Dhabi 2008
 
I would really like to take that class, however there is a catch. it is only available to women, or so the sign says. if it is open to men as well i would sign up.
 
Sorry to squeeze in guys, but I am desperately trying to have a good contact to organise some good spearfishing next time I am in Dubay. Guess will be there again in April.

Nope, the sign says that freediving classes are for men and women, its only the scuba classes that are for men.

we have a number of guys signed up already, from UK, The Netherlands, New Zealand..... are you coming?
 
If you have a boat that you don't mind having confiscated, Dhs.25,000 that you wouldn't mind parting with and 6 months of spare time you wouldn't mind spending in jails, plus of course if you're not really bothered by the Coast Guards, the Army or the Enviromental Authority depriving you of all your gear.. drop me a line and we'll go to Ruwais (350kms from Dubai) for a once in a life time spearfishing trip..
 

We were once caught and interrogated by the coast guard on the East Coast for diving 3km away of a US ship. It turns out , the US Navy got involved and it was a very long day.
