What to Expect on Your Spearfishing Trip

Our private spearfishing trips are tailored to ensure safety, adventure, and unforgettable memories.

Trip Highlights

Why Choose Spearfishing in Koh Samui?

Koh Samui is surrounded by diverse marine ecosystems, making it a hidden gem for spearfishing enthusiasts.

 

Our trips take you to carefully selected locations away from busy tourist areas and marine reserves, ensuring both safety and sustainability.

 

Spearfishing here isn’t just about the catch—it’s about experiencing the beauty of nature, respecting marine life, and practicing a skill that has been part of human tradition for centuries.

​

By choosing spearfishing, you’re actively participating in a method of fishing that’s selective and sustainable. Unlike mass fishing methods that result in bycatch and stress for marine life, spearfishing allows you to take only what you need, leaving the ecosystem balanced and thriving.



On our Koh Samui Spearfishing trips, you'll:
 

  • Practice ethical fishing techniques.
     

  • Target species like Mackerel, Trevally, Barracuda, and Snapper.
     

  • Immerse yourself in the beauty of the underwater world.
     

  • Enjoy a personalized experience with our certified freediving instructors.

Ethical And Sustainable Fishing

At Breathflow Connection, we believe in respecting the ocean and its inhabitants. Our spearfishing philosophy follows these principles:

  • Minimal Impact: Avoiding marine parks and popular snorkeling areas.
     

  • Sustainable Practices: Taking only what you need to ensure the ecosystem remains thriving.
     

By choosing our trips, you’re contributing to marine conservation and embracing a sustainable approach to fishing.

Testimonials

What Our Participants Say

Green Coral and Fish
I’ve done spearfishing before, but this trip was something else. The guides knew exactly where to take us, and the conditions were great. It felt so good to be back in the water, focusing on the hunt. I managed to land a nice-sized Barracuda—it was such a solid day out. The vibe was chill, but the action was intense. Loved every second of it.
