As a beginner with a strong passion and commitment to learn the sport, Andrew and Gonzalo taught me a lot. The breath work lesson before the dive was more enlightening than anything I've come across on youtube. With thier guidance I was able to do my first guided max breath hold and achieved over 3 mins which they say is above average. This was a great leap forward in my understanding and abilities and a real confidence boost for me! We swam all around the bay and dove on fish. They pointed out a few different good eating fish and then demonstrated good dive forms and good hunting techniques. They took time with my girl too who is less serious about the sport and she even shot her first fish with a speargun! I got two fish which was icing on the cake as far as I'm concerned. There is a lot going on as a newbie and I think its more important to focus on finding my zen in the water, learning my gear, and improving technique. At the end Gonzalo jumped right in and cleaned my two fish for me and Andrew graciously gifted us some of his catch with which we had two meals the following day. It was a great introduction to our week here along the coast. I'll be spending a few days practicing up for the Bays Tour by boat which I'm super stoked for! (no expectations!)

going from Bay to Bay really gave me a lot of confidence in swimming in deeper waters. We saw a lot more species than the short diving and more varied underwater features. I highly recommend this trip to anyone looking to advance their understanding of spearfishing! Thank you, Andrew and Gonzalo! I hope to return sooner than later!
Andrew and Gonzales were great They went over the breathing etc with my two friends that had never even snorkelled I a few surgeon fish, a nice Jack trevaly, a big trigger fish and a small tuna We brought about 15 lbs of meat back to our condo We had a large humpback only 30 yards from our boat and dolphins around us Also had a large school of white spotted rays swim by I will be doing this again Good guys and very informative

This was all time and once in a lifetime. Andrew was an amazing instructor. He made me feel safe, capable, confident, comfortable, knowledgeable and prepared. I went on my first spearfishing excursion with him. We went over psychological and physiological breathing fundamentals and stretches. I got acquainted with the gear and then we went for a long swim and a successful hunt! We walked about 150 feet from the water to the small beach restaurant where they made our fish into a delicious ceviche. Add a few beers and it was truly a perfect day that I'll never forget.

The view and experience were awesome. I had zero experience with diving before, but I was able to catch something towards the end of the trip. I absolutely recommend it if you are thinking about visiting Oaxaca.
I took my 15 yr old son and his friend and had a great time. They prepared us very well and we all got fish. It was safe and professional. Excellent way to see the world under the water. We will do it again!

My friends and I were visiting Huatulco and wanted to do something adventurous. We’re also huge fans of Survivor and thought spear fishing would be a great new challenge. All 4 of us had different levels of experience and skill in the water, but Andrew and Porfirio made us all feel comfortable with the sport. Andrew even met with us early to help with breathing techniques. They took us to different spots and each of us had the opportunity to hunt and enjoy the splendor of Huatulco’s ocean life. Andrew was a pro and pointed out each different species of fish to us. We even got to eat our catch right there on the boat! It’s an experience we’ll never forget. So if you’re looking for something interesting, this is the thing to do. Thanks for the lesson and the fun time!
this is out second time going and its been great. excellent information and tea hing for starters. fun
Great job explaining breathing techniques etc. and getting out hunting! I caught 2 fish with no prior experience. Thanks!
A great experience by far. I wanted to spearfish and the lady's I was with wanted to sightsee all the bay's. Our guide Andrew made it happen. Kept the lady's happy with his local knowledge of all the scenic bay's/beaches and I was able to get in a few hours of spearfishing. Was nice to have an expert freediver/spearfisher sharing his knowledge on breathwork and freediving techniques to help advance my own skills. Everybody had an awesome time, and the fresh ceviche with our catch on the ride back, it doesn't get any better. Highly recommended!
