Yes—speargun, mask, snorkel, fins and wetsuit are provided. You can bring your own kit if you prefer.
Nature decides! The focus is on safe technique, species recognition and ethics. A catch is a bonus.
We brief current UK and local byelaws, seasons and protected areas, and only operate where it’s legal and responsible.
We choose sheltered sites when possible. If the sea says “not today,” we reschedule—your safety comes first.
