Côte d'Ivoire
Africa · Western Africa
Côte d'Ivoire has no statute or decree that specifically names, authorises or prohibits recreational underwater fishing / spearfishing ('pêche sous-marine' / 'chasse sous-marine'). All fishing is governed by Law No. 2016-554 of 26 July 2016 on fishing and aquaculture, which requires authorisation/licences for fishing activity and creates a dedicated 'pêche sportive' (sport fishing) licence (Art. 38) issued by the Minister in charge of fisheries (after consulting the ministers of sport and tourism). The same law prohibits fishing of internationally protected species (Art. 11) and bans destructive methods such as explosives and toxic/anaesthetising substances. Because there is no spearfishing-specific permit and the activity falls under general fishing-authorisation rules plus area- and species-based restrictions, spearfishing is best classified as RESTRICTED rather than freely allowed. Additional spatial restrictions apply inside the Grand-Béréby Marine Protected Area (decree adopted 6 July 2022), where fishing and hunting are regulated. Sport/charter sea fishing (marlin, tuna, etc.) is actively practised out of Assinie, Grand-Bassam and Abidjan, with operators obtaining the required permits in advance.

Law No. 2016-554 (Art. 9) provides that implementing regulations determine the zones, periods and circumstances in which fishing may be prohibited or limited (biological-rest / closed seasons). No nationwide spearfishing-specific closed season with fixed dates was found in the retrieved official sources; specific dates are set by separate ministerial regulation.

Забрањена подручја
- Aire Marine Protégée de Grand-Béréby (Grand-Béréby Marine Protected Area)marine protected area
First marine protected area of Côte d'Ivoire, located in the Grand-Béréby sub-prefecture, San-Pedro department (south-west coast). Decree adopted by the Council of Ministers on 6 July 2022; it covers approximately 272,375 hectares and extends about 50 km along the coast. Important sea-turtle nesting site with mangroves and reefs; fishing and hunting inside the area are subject to regulation/restriction in favour of conservation. Coordinates not included because the figures reported in secondary press sources were inconsistent and could not be verified against an official source.
- Parc National d'Azagny (Azagny National Park)national park / coastal Ramsar wetland
Coastal national park in southern Côte d'Ivoire on the Gulf of Guinea, ~75 km west of Abidjan, between the mouth of the Bandama River and the Ébrié Lagoon. Established January 1981 (~19,400 ha; mangrove swamps and lagoon habitats over ~two-thirds of its area) and designated a Ramsar Wetland on 27 February 1996. As a national park, fishing/hunting/extractive activities are prohibited under Ivorian protected-area and fisheries law (Law No. 2016-554 Art. 11 protects species; national parks are closed to fishing). Note: waters are primarily lagoon/canal/mangrove rather than open marine; mapped as a prohibited aquatic conservation zone with medium confidence on spearfishing applicability.

ANTI-FABRICATION / PROVENANCE: Côte d'Ivoire has no spearfishing-specific (pêche sous-marine / chasse sous-marine) statute or decree; the only national fisheries instrument is Law No. 2016-554 of 26 July 2016 (121 articles, 6 titles), which regulates all fishing via authorisations/licences, including a 'pêche sportive' licence (Art. 38), prohibits taking internationally protected species (Art. 11), and bans destructive gear (explosives, toxic/anaesthetising substances). The full official text is only available as a scanned PDF on FAOLEX (https://faolex.fao.org/docs/pdf/ivc159952.pdf); its machine OCR is heavily degraded. The verbatim_text quoted for Articles 11 and 38 was transcribed from that official scanned PDF and normalised to standard French legal orthography to repair clear OCR scrambling; wording is faithful to the source but minor transcription differences versus the printed Journal Officiel are possible — treat the FAOLEX PDF as canonical. The Grand-Béréby Marine Protected Area decree was adopted by the Council of Ministers on 6 July 2022 (~272,375 ha, ~50 km of coast, Grand-Béréby sub-prefecture, San-Pedro department); coordinates were omitted because secondary press figures were internally inconsistent and unverifiable against an official source. Licence cost/validity, exact closed-season dates, recreational bag/size limits, and explicit speargun/scuba rules are delegated to implementing regulations that were not retrievable from authoritative sources; these are marked 'unknown'. Confidence: medium — the primary statute and the MPA are well established from official/authoritative sources, but spearfishing-specific operational detail is genuinely absent from Ivorian law.
