Hi there and welcome! I'm also new here.
 
Hey! I'm on the west near kissamos!
I've never been in your region - good fishing over there?
That's great to hear! There are some nice fishing spots especially on the northern part of the Merambello gulf(Accessible only with good weather). For both shallow and deep spearfishing and also a few good ones within the middle and southern part of the gulf. What spearfishing technique do you like to practice?
 
Welcome Nautilus! Nice to see this sudden increase of Cretan spearos and divers here.

There are some nice fishing spots especially on the northern part of the Merambello gulf(Accessible only with good weather).
The cape, the very tip of the gulf? I can imagine that almost being like a spearfisher's adventure park with the waves from the northern winds bordering the always calm waters of the bay.

I spear mostly the south coast, from Chora Sfakion to Tsoutsouros... Litter-picking lionfish and searching for this elusive dentex.

Hello Leander and thank you for your welcome message! Yes indeed the northern tip under the Aforesmenos lighthouse is a very interesting spot with a variety of different fish species to choose from. Good rocky bottom.. Offcourse due to it's location it is good to approach it with a boat on a calmer day, as the road access down there is only possible with an offroad bike (road barrier on top due to the wind generator park) and can be a pain with all the gear on the backpack. I know Chora Sfakion very well as I hop on to Daskalogiannis or Samariá on my way to Gavdos every year... It is my necessary camping and fishing therapy trip after the hectic work season. Sometimes I also go from palaióhora.
Dentex... As we know is in a class of it's own. Unique creatures.
Saw them many times but got only a very few in my fishing career. Still love&respect them and always wait for those shadows to appear while waiting in the bottom.
Safe dives! Καλές αναδύσεις
