Spearfishing

If you don't know where to start or where to dive come in and talk to Paddy or Cam. They can help you understand what you need to get started or to take you to the next level. With local knowledge about dives sites & tips on what to do when you’re out there.

We are lucky to have access to a variety of local dive sites that enable us to get into the water most weeks. Our vast coast line means the waters aren’t over crowded with divers and no place is hit too hard. The Taputeranga Marine Reserve has been in place for over 15 years and spearos have reaped the benefits at its borders with Crays, Butterfish & Blue Moki populations increasing in both size and number. The coastline offers a range of depth and game, allowing beginners to get a good start. The more experienced diver also has great opportunities here. Snapper and Kingfish make appearances in the deeper parts of the coast and offer a great challenge for anyone willing to head out a little further.

Here at Dive HQ Wellington we offer a wide range of spearfishing gear. We are proud stockists of Wettie products with spearguns suitable for beginners through to advanced with carbon fibre, roller and reel guns available. Our staff will be able to find what gun suits you and your hunting style. Our range of wetsuits will be able to cater for your budget and diving needs. We also stock all the accessories you need when heading out for a dive - spare rubbers, dyneema, wishbones, dive floats, flags and more.
