Enquire About HuntingThe Experience
New Zealand's coastline holds serious hunting potential. Rocky terrain, deep gutters, kelp forests, and caves shelter quality prey. But the territory is complex. Currents shift. Visibility changes. Success requires knowledge.
Richie knows these waters. He reads conditions—weather, tide, visibility—and plans hunting missions accordingly. This isn't a tourist operation running the same route every day. Every trip is shaped by what the water is doing.
Half-day or full-day missions. Spearfish, crayfish, kina. Come prepared to work and we'll find you territory worth hunting.

What to Expect
These trips suit experienced freedivers and scuba divers with hunting experience. You're expected to handle your own gear and work the water efficiently.
Hunting depends on visibility and water clarity. Richie monitors conditions and will advise the best targets for the day—spearfishing, crayfish, kina, or a combination.
Richie doesn't run fixed routes. He takes you to terrain that holds potential—based on recent conditions, tides, and what you're targeting.
Anything legally caught within the limits is yours to take home. Crayfish, fish, and other legal catches can be kept, and Richie can advise on how to prepare and cook them properly.
