Diving in Tonga

  • Hey guys


    I am on Deeper blue & spear-board but I am glad to join your forum. ''Freedivingspearfishing''.com sounds like the right name!


    Anyways I live in The Kingdom of Tonga (south pacific), been living here since I was a kid, spearfishing the whole time. First with a polespear for 2-3 years and then I moved up to guns! Now I do both!


    I run a charter boat business on the main island Tonga tapu. I specialize in spearfishing but also offer game fishing, and whale watching for the tourist. Here is my site, www.tonga-charters.com I have a spearfishing video clip on there too!:thumbsup2:



    Looking forward to meeting everybody here


    Thanks for your time

  • Hey Ben,


    I'm a mate of Matt's. He raves about Tonga and really likes the way you run things there. Hope you are doing well and I'm sure we will meet up at some point.


    Regards,

  • Thanks Dan, its pretty hard to explain where Tongan is with words!


    No I am not a native. I am originally from the states but grew up as a kid in Fiji and then my parents moved to Tonga when I was 12, so Tonga is my home away from home.


    Hey Kolt, yeah Matt had a good run-in with the doggies! Glad he enjoyed his trip. How are the Kingfish doing? A guy on my boat speared one off one of our wrecks this past winter. A bit too far north for a kingfish I think. Anyways it tasted great!
