Recreational spearfishing (pesca submarina / pesca deportiva) is legal in Peru and widely practised along the Pacific coast; Peru even hosted the CMAS World Spearfishing Championship. Under the General Fishing Law (Decreto Ley 25977, 1992) and its Regulation (Decreto Supremo 012-2001-PE), recreational/sport fishing is a 'non-commercial' category carried out for recreational or tourist purposes, and individual recreational fishing carried out WITHOUT a vessel does NOT require a fishing permit (Art. 29 of the Regulation). Sale of the catch is not permitted for this category. There is, however, no dedicated national regulation specifically tailored to recreational spearfishing: rules on scuba use, daily bag limits, minimum sizes and a diver registry have been recommended by experts (SPDA) but a comprehensive 'reglamento de pesca deportiva' has not yet been enacted. Species-specific rules do apply: under DS 009-2008-PRODUCE and the infraction regime added by DS 013-2009-PRODUCE, sport fishing of the billfishes (black, blue and striped marlin and sailfish) requires a specific sport-fishing permit and the captured specimen must be released (catch-and-release); their commercialization is prohibited. Industrial/large-scale fishing is prohibited inside marine protected natural areas (e.g. Reserva Nacional de Paracas), while small-scale non-commercial extraction inside ANPs is allowed only under approved management plans. Confidence is medium: the framework laws are confirmed verbatim from official sources, but a single consolidated spearfishing-specific instrument does not exist.

Apribojimai
- Spearfishing in Peru is practised in apnea (free-diving). Use of scuba for spearfishing has been proposed to be expressly prohibited in a draft recreational-fishing regulation, but a binding national prohibition has not yet been enacted (status as of 2026).
There is no consolidated national regulation governing recreational spearfishing gear. Existing provisions on diver certification/registry for pesca submarina have been described by experts (SPDA) as inconsistent. Confirm current PRODUCE rules before diving.
Ką galima imti
Sugavimo limitai ir saugomos rūšys
Dienos normos, minimalūs dyžiai ir rūšys, kurių niekada negalima imti.
Dienos limitas
No general daily bag limit (LMCD) for recreational fishing is established in national law; expert recommendations (SPDA) propose bag limits for ~22 species, but these are not yet binding.
Saugomos rūšys — neimkite
- SaugomaMerlín negro / black marlin (Makaira indica) - catch-and-release only, sport-fishing permit required, sale prohibited
- SaugomaMerlín azul / blue marlin (Makaira mazara) - catch-and-release only, sport-fishing permit required, sale prohibited
- SaugomaMerlín rayado / striped marlin (Tetrapturus audax) - catch-and-release only, sport-fishing permit required, sale prohibited
- SaugomaPez vela / sailfish (Istiophorus platypterus) - catch-and-release only, sport-fishing permit required, sale prohibited
- SaugomaMarine turtles (protected under Ley N° 26585 - extraction, processing and commercialization prohibited)
Minimum capture sizes and reproductive closures exist for many commercial species under PRODUCE resolutions but are not specifically codified for recreational spearfishing. Sport fishers should not sell their catch (the recreational/non-commercial category is defined as fishing for recreation, not for profit).

Užsienio lankytojai
LeidžiamaApribojimai
- Existing (draft/inconsistent) pesca submarina diver-registry requirements reportedly limit formal inscription to persons aged 18+ who are Peruvian or Peru residents, a condition criticised by experts as effectively excluding tourists; however this is not a clearly enforced national rule.
Foreign recreational anglers and spearfishers do practise in Peru (the country hosted the CMAS World Spearfishing Championship). Individual non-embarked recreational fishing requires no permit regardless of nationality. Verify any vessel-based or charter requirements locally with PRODUCE/DICAPI.
Gyventojai
No fishing permit required for individual recreational/sport fishing without a vessel (residents and nationals alike)
Peru does not operate a general recreational fishing licence system; the non-commercial 'deportiva' category is exempt from permits when carried out individually and without a vessel (DS 012-2001-PE, Art. 29).

Marine-coastal national protected natural area (ANP) of about 154,716 ha in the Ica/Nazca region, established 9 July 2011 by Decreto Supremo N° 017-2011-MINAM. It is the only Peruvian protected area linking an Andean-coastal biological corridor to the marine environment (penguins, sea turtles, whales, sea lions). As a marine ANP, industrial/large-scale fishing is prohibited and non-commercial extraction is permitted only under approved management plans (Ley N° 26834). IUCN category VI.

Protects a convergence of tropical and temperate marine ecosystems (humpback whales, manta rays, sharks, all sea turtle species). As a marine ANP, industrial/large-scale fishing is prohibited; only sustainable artisanal use respecting pre-existing rights is permitted under management plans (Ley N° 26834).

Tyrėjo pastabos
Peru has a clear statutory framework for non-commercial 'pesca deportiva' (recreational fishing) in DL 25977 and DS 012-2001-PE, but NO dedicated national regulation specifically for recreational spearfishing (pesca submarina). Key verbatim provisions (Art. 20 DL 25977; Arts. 29-30 and billfish infractions 106-108 of DS 012-2001-PE) were extracted directly from official PDF sources. Practical points: (1) individual spearfishing without a vessel needs no permit; (2) catch may not be sold; (3) billfish (marlin/sailfish) are catch-and-release only and require a sport-fishing permit; (4) industrial fishing is banned inside marine ANPs such as Reserva Nacional de Paracas. Scuba-for-spearfishing prohibition, daily bag limits, minimum sizes and a diver registry have been RECOMMENDED by SPDA but are not yet codified in a binding national instrument (confirmed as of mid-2026), so equipment_rules.scuba_allowed and several limits are left null/unknown rather than guessed. Confidence: medium. No closed seasons specific to recreational spearfishing were found, so seasons[] is left empty; species-specific commercial closures exist but are not spearfishing-specific.
