Legal Disclaimer
Last updated: June 2026
Spearo Map (spearomap.com) provides information about spearfishing legality, seasons, licenses, equipment rules and regulations worldwide. Please read this disclaimer carefully before relying on anything you find here.
Information provided "as is"
All content on this site is provided "as is" and "as available", for general information only. We make no representations or warranties of any kind — express or implied — about the accuracy, completeness, currency or reliability of the information.
Not legal advice
Nothing on this site is legal advice, and using it does not create any professional relationship. The information is a starting point for your own research, not a substitute for advice from a qualified professional or from the competent authority in the relevant jurisdiction.
Rules may be outdated or incomplete
Spearfishing laws, closed seasons, protected zones, license requirements, gear rules and catch limits change frequently and often quietly. Despite our best efforts, information here may be out of date, incomplete, simplified or incorrect, and local or seasonal rules may not be fully captured.
Verify with official authorities before diving
You must always confirm the current rules with the relevant official authority — fisheries department, coast guard, marine-park or local government — before you dive. Where official sources are cited, check them directly. When in doubt, do not dive until you have confirmed the rules.
Your responsibility and safety
You are solely responsible for complying with all applicable laws and for your own safety. Spearfishing carries inherent risks. Dive within your training and limits, never alone, and follow local safety requirements such as dive flags and signal buoys.
Community content
Dive spots, shop and charter listings and reviews are submitted by the community and may be inaccurate, promotional or outdated. They are not vetted dive reports and are not a substitute for checking local rules, conditions and the suitability of a site.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Spearo Map and its operators accept no liability for any loss, injury, fine, penalty or damage arising from use of, or reliance on, this site — including any decision made while spearfishing.
