Some Things About Us
SII (Spearfishing Instructors International) is an established global Spearfishing Education Organization; it is the first ever of its kind, specialized, strictly Spearfishing Education Organization, aiming to provide high quality training and education services to spearos around the world.
SII grew out of the passion of a few avid Spearfishing Champions and Freediving Instructors, who are intent on making it possible for anyone to learn how to spearfish. SII addresses to all levels of spearos, from beginner to advanced. Special stages for VIPs, electronic device applications, competitive spearfishing, deep spearfishing, variable weight use etc, are targeting to cover every need of the modern spearfisher who wants to rapidly develop in the sport.
In addition to all existing freediving education programs, most of the teaching and training in SII system Alpha-Omega is open water oriented, emphasizing in real action conditions, on boats and in solid safety due to our recently developed "4-diver" and "total safety" safety protocols.
SII Education Manual is in English, aiming to spearos all around the world. It is a collection of knowledge, training, teaching and spearfishing experience in all three Oceans the last 30 years!
