Summertime is the best time of the year up North! We are always very lucky to enjoy warm clear blue water throughout the summer with good visibility and there's always plenty of fish around. It is never a boring dive even if you don't spear a fish as there is so much to see! I think New Zealand is very beautiful above water but below I think it is even more amazing under! My passion for free diving and spearfishing has taken me to some awesome locations around the North Island and I always cannot wait for summer to tick around!
