Spearfishing Clubs have surged over the last decade and there are many active clubs throughout the country.  It is common for clubs to utilise a social media to organise meets to talk gear and swap stories, and also organise dive trips.  The more the merrier so get in touch with your local club today.
Kerikeri Spearfishing

Kerikeri Spearfishing is intended as a casual group for local spearos from Kerikeri and surrounding areas. Our goal is to share stories, vis reports and spearfishing related photos relevant to our region. We intend that users utilise the group to get to know fellow spearos in the area and to organise dive trips together as a social activity.
