Recreational spearfishing with a harpoon (speargun) is legal in Bulgaria only in the waters of the Black Sea. The general ban on harpoons in the Fisheries and Aquaculture Act (Чл. 35, ал. 1, т. 5) expressly does not apply to recreational fishing in Black Sea waters (Чл. 35, ал. 2); the detailed conditions are set by a ministerial ordinance under Чл. 15, ал. 1. Spearfishing is freediving-only (no SCUBA/oxygen apparatus) and is permitted only during daylight hours. Harpoon use in fresh water (Danube, inland water bodies) remains prohibited. A general spawning-season fishing ban applies annually (issued by order of the Minister of Agriculture and Food / Executive Agency for Fisheries and Aquaculture - IARA), and the Black Sea turbot is under a strict closed season (15 April - 15 June). No recreational licence is required for sea fishing for either residents or foreigners; daily retention is limited (up to 3 kg of marine organisms, or one specimen over 3 kg).

Spearfishing is prohibited in/around military objects and naval base areas; objects in the Black Sea are coordinated with the commanders of the naval bases of the Bulgarian Army (Чл. 21, Чл. 25).
- Kaliakra Reserve (marine area)nature reserve (marine)
Kaliakra is the only nature/archaeological reserve in Bulgaria that includes a protected sea-water area, on Cape Kaliakra (Southern Dobruja, northern Black Sea coast). As a strict reserve under the Protected Areas Act all activities are prohibited except those expressly allowed; fishing in the aquatic zone is banned (with a strict bird-breeding closure 1 March – 30 July), making spearfishing impermissible within the reserve's marine waters.
- Koketrais sand bank protected areaprotected area (marine sand bank)
Protected site 'Pyasachna banka Koketrais' (Koketrays/Koketrise sand bank), ~12.5 km east of Nessebar and ~6.5 km south of Cape Emine, 760 ha of Black Sea seabed protected for the sand bank and benthic fauna. Bottom trawling/dredging, mussel and rapana harvesting, sand extraction (without EIA) and pollution are prohibited. Official gazette boundary: pts ~42°38'–42°39.5'N, 27°52'–27°54'E (center used).

Spearfishing is incompatible with the protected regime of this shallow estuarine bay.

ໝາຍເຫດຂອງນັກວິໄຈ
Spearfishing is legal in Bulgaria ONLY in Black Sea waters, by way of an express exception to the general harpoon ban (Чл. 35, ал. 2 of the Fisheries and Aquaculture Act). The four law_texts entries are verbatim Cyrillic excerpts retrieved from the statute (iasrj.eu and spearfish.org reproduction). Freediving-only (no SCUBA) and the mandatory signal buoy attached to the diver are not present in the statute excerpts retrieved and are sourced from spearfishing community sites (harpune.info, thefishcode.com); the precise wording lives in the recreational-fishing ordinance issued under Чл. 15, ал. 1, which could not be retrieved verbatim - confidence on those two points is medium. The turbot closed season (15 April - 15 June) and 45 cm minimum size derive from EU Black Sea regulations and the annual Bulgarian spawning-ban order (BTA). Daily limit, no-sale rule, and prohibited zones (ports, freshwater mouths, military objects) are consistent across the statute and secondary sources. Overall data_confidence: medium - core legality and statute text are well-sourced; some operational details (buoy, scuba, exact ordinance text) rest on secondary sources.
