Captain
Johanna Loch-Allen

Member since May 2017 Bridgetown, Barbados
Background
Capt. Johanna has been spearfishing for many years but became a freediving instructor about three years ago. That's also when she started teaching people to spearfish and leading blue water spearfishing tours as well. She used to be a photographer and she still enjoys doing a lot of underwater photography and video. It took a lot of guts and effort to change her whole life around but she couldn’t be happier now and it never feels like work for her. Everyone who comes on a tour with her and the crew gets the full experience and you all have a great time together. The captain says it’s not just an experience, it’s a lifestyle. This is a great way to spear your own dinner and practice selective fishing methods. The crew's looking forward to getting in the water with you soon!
Techniques
Capt. Johanna loves spearfishing – both on inshore reefs and for offshore pelagic fish.
