SpearfishingMap

Indonesia

Asia · South-Eastern Asia

Recreational spearfishing is legal in Indonesia and broadly practised at popular destinations such as Bali, Lombok and Java. No national recreational spearfishing licence exists for locals or tourists. Two hard national constraints apply: (1) spearfishing must be done on a single breath (freediving) - using SCUBA or a surface-supplied compressor to fish is prohibited (Law No. 31/2004 as amended by Law No. 45/2009, Art. 9, bans possession/use on a fishing vessel of catching gear/aids that disturb and damage fish-resource sustainability, with the elucidation expressly naming the compressor; penalty under Art. 85); and (2) spearfishing of nationally protected species (manta rays, all sharks in many regions, whale shark, Napoleon/humphead wrasse, sea turtles, dugong, sawfish) is forbidden anywhere. In addition, spearfishing is entirely prohibited for tourists/visitors inside Marine Protected Areas and marine national parks (e.g. Raja Ampat MPAs, Bunaken, Komodo, Nusa Penida, Wakatobi); only local communities may use traditional methods (jubi, senapan molo) in designated Sustainable Fisheries / Aquaculture zones. Rules vary by province and regency, so local zoning must always be checked.

Kısıtlamalar

  • Spearfishing must be done on a single breath (freediving); SCUBA tanks and surface-supplied compressors may not be used to fish
  • Compressor (kompresor) is expressly named in the elucidation of Art. 9 of Law No. 45/2009 as damaging fishing gear/aid - prohibited on fishing vessels nationwide (penalty: up to 5 years and Rp 2 billion under Art. 85)
  • Explosives and poisons are strictly prohibited (national fisheries law and local regulations such as Raja Ampat Perda No. 9/2012 Art. 16)

The prohibition on SCUBA/compressor spearfishing is consistently reported by dive federations and charters and is grounded in the national ban on damaging fishing gear/aids; enforcement varies by region but violations occur.

Kimler avlanabilir

Ziyaretçiler ve ikamet edenler

Kuralların yabancı ziyaretçiler ve yerel ikamet edenler için nasıl farklılaştığı.

Yabancı ziyaretçiler

İzin veriliyor

Gereksinimler

  • Freediving only - no SCUBA/compressor
  • Do not take protected species
  • Stay outside Marine Protected Areas and national parks; pay Marine Park entry fees where required
  • Follow provincial/regency rules and any charter-operator guidance

Kısıtlamalar

  • Spearfishing entirely prohibited for tourists/visitors inside MPAs and marine national parks (e.g. Raja Ampat, Bunaken, Komodo, Wakatobi, Nusa Penida)

Tourists routinely spearfish via charters in Bali, Lombok and Java; no foreigner-specific spearfishing permit is required, but all national protected-species and protected-area rules apply equally to foreigners.

İkamet edenler

No recreational spearfishing licence; traditional/customary fishing rights recognised for local communities

Gereksinimler

  • Within Raja Ampat MPAs, only local community members may spearfish, using traditional methods (jubi, senapan molo), and only in Sustainable Fisheries / Aquaculture Zones

Avantajlar

  • Traditional fishing access in designated sustainable-use zones not available to tourists

National protected-species bans apply to residents as well; subsistence/traditional rights do not extend to protected species (sharks, manta, turtles, dugong) in sanctuary areas.

Araştırmacı notları

Confidence is medium: the binding national legal texts (Law 45/2009 Arts. 9 & 85 and their elucidation) and the Raja Ampat Perda No. 9/2012 (Arts. 14, 16, 24) were retrieved verbatim from official/archival PDFs and extracted locally; the Perda text comes from an OCR'd scan so minor transcription artifacts were normalised (e.g. 'perse seine' read as 'purse seine'). Key uncertainties: (1) Indonesia has no single statute that names 'spearfishing' (penembakan ikan / panah ikan) explicitly - the freediving-only rule is the practical consequence of the national prohibition on compressor/scuba-assisted fishing (Art. 9 elucidation) plus protected-species and MPA rules, as consistently reported by dive federations and charters rather than by a dedicated spearfishing clause. (2) Province/regency rules vary; only Raja Ampat's local regulation was obtained verbatim. (3) No national recreational bag/size limits were found. The kkprajaampat.com and several charter pages were unreachable directly from this environment (network timeouts); their content was captured via web search snippets and the reachable mirror/legal-framework pages. Coordinates for zones are approximate centroids for mapping, not legal boundaries.
