Speara Social 6th - 7th July 2024
WHAT TO EXPECT
AN EVENT FOR BEGINNERS TO DIP THEIR TOES IN THE WATER & FOR SOCIAL SPEARAS TO MEET NEW BUDDIES
After an exceptional first event last year we are pleased to share that the 2nd Speara Day will actually run across a whole weekend, welcoming back lots of the same team and sponsors as 2023 and some new faces and brands, and welcoming back experienced Spearas to mingle, encourage and enjoy alongside the newbies, becoming the ‘Speara Social’.
As well as being a place to introduce women to spearfishing and freediving, we are all about building community and sharing skills, stories and passion; with this in mind we have a ticket price for experienced Spearas who might want to join us for the social side (Details Here)
This year we have the same generous offer of a pair of deck boots for every participant from the legendary company that is XTRATUF as well as repeat support from Spearfishing UK. A new brand joining us in 2024 is The Apnea Collective with a special one off t-shirt from every participant of the full event, using the ancient art of Gyotaku.
The weekend will consist of learning, activities, food, skills and socialising in this beautiful spot in Cornwall.
On the first day, you will have an introduction to the two sports, familiarisation with gear, safety and techniques on dry ground, followed by in-ocean experience fro those who’ve never tried spearfishing or freediving before, with our experienced Spearfishing and Freediving women and some supporting men!
We will cover everything you need to know to feel safe and comfortable in the water and techniques for finning, duck-diving, equalising, breath hold and more, once you’re comfortable, we will get you on the guns, practicing technique with our fun sponge targets.
We will have two safety boats at the site and you will be able to take everything at your own pace.
Prior to the water element, will run through breathwork, yoga and Heartmath methods which all mentally and physically prepare us for a successful dive.
After the activity we will provide a delicious seafood BBQ on the first evening of the event.
Our resident beach buddy Tessa ‘Dolphin’ owner of a Dive School in Hurghada and one of the loveliest houses on the Beach, will also host a little ladies day soiree on her stunning balcony overlooking the ocean where we can chill, eat some oysters and share experiences of the day.
On the second day, we will dive again and repeat our target practice and finish the day with the fish filleting and gyotaku demonstrations, and a final little farewell cook-up on the beach where you can ask questions about further training and experience with all of our team, or just enjoy the glow of a salty weekend.
