Compiled by the spearo sea-state engine · How it works →

The verdict comes from seven water factors and hard safety gates — not ten tabs. Go or stay.

How we score the water

Our own model

Our own forecast engine — not a third-party widget. It weighs these water factors into one go-or-stay verdict for this coast; the 0–10 dial is that verdict, read out as a number.

01
Swell & wave memory
Height, period and direction of the swell, plus the wake of recent storms — an old storm still stirs the water, and the engine remembers.
02
Wind & gusts
Speed and gusts, hour by hour — wind speed and an onshore push chop the surface and cut visibility.
03
Tide phase
Timing and range of the tide, calibrated per coast — big spring tides pull the verdict toward caution.
04
Water temperature
Sea-surface temperature — sharply cold water vetoes a green verdict.
05
Currents & outflow
Direction and drift of the current — it pushes you, and it drags turbid coastal water across where you dive.
06
Rain runoff & air clarity
Rain muddies the water inshore through land runoff, while fog and haze cut visibility at the surface.
07
Coast shape & exposure
How the coast faces the swell — a sheltered cove keeps the water clean; an exposed, head-on point takes a penalty.

Safety gates

  • Thunderstorm forecast — an instant red, no exceptions.
  • An official warning (MeteoAlarm / IPMA) — yellow, or red for the higher ranks.
  • Missing input data — a would-be green is capped to yellow rather than overstated.
  • Strong disagreement between forecast models — a green day is pulled back to yellow.
  • Night hours — where night spearfishing is banned by law the window is forced red; where it is legal (Australia outside NSW, New Zealand, South Africa) it is capped at yellow, never green.

It all folds into a single 0–10 score and one verdict: go or stay.

A forecast, not a guarantee — the sea has the last word.

Visibility and what drives it — post-storm clearing, river plume, temperature and the thermocline.

What it is

A marine instrument,
go / no-go for solo hunting.

spearo.app folds wind, wave, swell period, visibility, tides, water temperature and risk into a single verdict — go to the spot or not. It computes 7 days ahead from open marine models (Open-Meteo, IPMA), with no sign-up and no accounts. Built for solo spearfishing off the rocks, where any mistake costs dearly.

Now live: 1391 spots across 205 stretches of coast — mainland Portugal, Madeira and the Azores.

SOLO is the biggest risk: underwater you can black out from lack of oxygen silently and fatally, with no one around. Solo is never truly «safe». Below are the best weather windows; carry a buoy, tell someone your plan and exit time, and any doubt — don't go.

  • dusky grouper
    Epinephelus marginatus · 8–35 m · 🚫 BANNED (Çizelge 1)
    🚫 Orfoz is FULLY BANNED (Çizelge 1, RG 11.08.2024 №32629) — not a legal target. Size is irrelevant: do not take it, release it.
  • pufferfish
    Lagocephalus spp. · 2–40 m · invasive
    ☠️ DO NOT EAT: deadly TTX toxin (not destroyed by cooking, no antidote). Amateur rule: kill it and throw it back to open sea — bringing it ashore/into a harbour is BANNED (3,770 TL fine). No bounty for amateurs (commercial SUBİS boats only).
  • lionfish
    Pterois miles · 5–40 m · invasive
    Invasive (venomous spines!). There is NO official amateur permit/reward for culling — never grab bare-handed, treat a sting with hot water (>45 °C). Flesh is edible.
  • rabbitfish
    Siganus spp. · 2–20 m · invasive
    Invasive (Eastern Med). Apparently no dedicated size/count/season limit (not confirmed against the current tebliğ — verify). Venomous spines — remove carefully.
Law
  • ✓Since 1 Jan 2026 amateur spearfishing requires an Amatör Balıkçı Belgesi marked for the diving method (Tebliğ 2024/21, md. 16(4)(ç); the document itself is issued under md. 4(1), via e-Devlet, valid 5 years) — the old citizen exemption no longer applies to spearguns. A FOREIGN TOURIST is still NOT automatically entitled to spearfish solo (md. 5): the documented route is a licensed av-turizmi boat/guide OR a permit (pusula) from the district agriculture directorate. Get the belge, then the permit or a guide.
  • ✓Breath-hold + snorkel only — scuba/hookah/spare-air are banned (Tebliğ 2024/21, md. 16(4)(b)). Night prohibited — sunset to sunrise (md. 16(4)(a)). A buoy showing your position is MANDATORY (md. 16(4)(c)). Spearfishing is banned inside buoyed swimming areas (1 Apr–15 Nov, ≤200 m from shore — md. 16(5)) and in ports, fishing shelters and slipways (md. 17(4)).
  • ✓Invasives: the lionfish (aslan balığı) — invasive, ⚠️ venomous spines; there is NO official amateur permit/reward for taking it. The pufferfish (balon balığı) ☠️ NEVER EAT — tetrodotoxin, no antidote; kill it and return it to the open sea, BRINGING IT ASHORE/TO PORT IS BANNED. Exact sizes and zones — in the species card and the guide.
  • ✓The speargun is lawful amateur gear AT SEA (Tebliğ 2024/21, md. 16(2)(a)). In INLAND waters — lakes, reservoirs, rivers — the speargun and the hand harpoon are banned outright (md. 13(2)).
  • ✓Selling an amateur catch, moving it alive or releasing it into other waters is prohibited (Tebliğ 2024/21, md. 8(1)). The weight limit is 5 kg per person per outing, one species or mixed; a single fish over 5 kg is legal in itself, but the rest without it must fit in 4 kg (md. 15(4)). For species limited by count, no more than 3 fish in total per person per outing, however many days it lasts (md. 15(5)).
  • ✓Minimum sizes and per-species counts come from the tebliğ's Çizelge 7: keeping fish below the stated length or above the stated number is prohibited (Tebliğ 2024/21, md. 15(1)); on lengths there is a 5 % downward tolerance (note 2 to the same table).
  • ✓Totally protected species — Çizelge 1 (Tebliğ 2024/21, md. 6(1)): the DUSKY GROUPER (Epinephelus marginatus), most sharks and rays, the monk seal, sea turtles, Pinna nobilis, red coral, Posidonia oceanica, the European eel, the seahorse, Maja squinado, Tonna galea and cetaceans. They may be taken neither at sea nor in inland waters.
  • ✓Light as a fishing method is banned in amateur fishing; lighting up to 50 W for safety on board or ashore does not count (Tebliğ 2024/21, md. 8(8)). Fishing closer than 100 m to the boundaries of sea cages, or 200 m to shore-based facilities, is prohibited (md. 8(5)).
Safety protocol
  • Sets: watch the wave trains ≥15 min before entering; Hmax ≈ 2×Hs, the wash can run 50 m past the foam line. A lull >10 min with period >12 s = a big set «overdue», do NOT enter; enter right after a full set passes and re-check at minute 30.
  • Exit FIRST: find your exit AND a backup before entering. On a rocky/boulder shore a 0.5 m rise in swell can make the exit impossible — getting pinned/unable to climb out is the main killer.
  • Headland rip: prominent points often have a permanent topographic rip regardless of the model — locate it, enter/exit on the windward side, never swim against it.
  • Cold: wetsuit per the SST chip; the first shiver = a metabolic surge and a drop in breath-hold → get out at the first steady shiver. Cap the session at 45–60 min below 15 °C.
  • Solo discipline: buoy up; tell someone the spot and exit time; conservative breath-hold (never push it in cold/murky/surfy water); visibility <3 m — don't enter.
  • Afternoon wind: on many coasts the wind builds from midday — plan to be out of the water by midday; the chop builds — get out.
  • UV 11:00–15:00 (UVI ≥6): sunscreen and cover up on the surface interval.
  • Solo is a fundamental risk (hypoxic blackout with no buddy). Any doubt = No-go.

Spearfishing in Sığacık: spots, seasons and rules

Updated 2026-07-09 · By Oleksandr, spearfisher

Sığacık/Seferihisar should not be read as twenty easy shore entries. local notes say there are 20+ dive points, but most are boat trips from the marina. Shore-accessible Akkum is a 0-15 m rocky edge, with the gulf open to the north. Ekmeksiz, the 'Lego Hill' reef, is about 250 m offshore at 5-20 m and needs a boat or long swim. Doğanbey Burnu is a clearer, exposed 0-25 m rock/deep edge. Teos is an archaeological site on land, not a diving ban, but heavy marina traffic and float visibility control the dive. Since 1 January 2026, the Amatör Balıkçı Belgesi must show the diving method; spearfishing is breath-hold only and not at night.

TL;DR

  • Sığacık has 20+ dive points, but most are marina boat dives; shore-accessible choices are mainly Akkum and Ekmeksiz.
  • Ekmeksiz, the 'Lego Hill' reef, sits about 250 m out; the gulf is north-open with heavy marina traffic and 4-8 m visibility.
  • The 2026 diving-method permit, apnea method and night ban remain mandatory.

Which Sığacık rows are realistic from shore?

Akkum is the direct shore row. Ekmeksiz is shore-accessible only as a long swim or boat-assisted reef about 250 m out. Doğanbey is clearer and more exposed, so weather chooses the day.

SpotTypeDepthLevelAccessNotes
Akkum rocky edgesRock/sand shore0-15mIntermediateShoreShore-accessible rocky edge, 0-15 m; the gulf is open north, with marina traffic to consider.

Doğanbey BurnuRocky point0-25mExperiencedShore or boatSE point with 0-25 m rock/deep edge; shore or boat, clear and exposed.

What controls Sığacık?

Access and marina traffic. Many named points are boat dives, so do not turn the list into shore promises. Teos is a land archaeological site, not a dive closure, but the marina entrance, north-open gulf and 4-8 m visibility make float discipline essential. Apply the permit, breath-hold and night-ban checks before choosing Akkum, Ekmeksiz or Doğanbey.

  • ✓Closed places you have to recognise on sight (Tebliğ 2024/21, md. 17(2), md. 17(5) and md. 17(3)): in the monk seal's coastal caves everything is banned — light, diving by any means, swimming in, waiting at the entrance, anchoring and fishing; in naval prohibited areas fishing is banned; in the declared diving-ban areas taking fish by diving is banned. The coordinates of the diving-ban areas (Aegean E1–E49, Black Sea K1–K7) are published in a decision of their own (BKK 2016/8743, md. 1), but they have been updated four times since: the Black Sea annex by presidential decision 435 of 09.12.2018, the Aegean one by 2339 of 01.04.2020, 2802 of 27.07.2020 and 5068 of 05.01.2022. The tebliğ points precisely at the UPDATED and announced coordinates, so it is the consolidated list that binds, not the 2016 text. The cave and naval boundaries are published nowhere — they are obeyed on sight.
    • ⛔ Sturgeon (Acipenseridae, mersin) — total ban (Çizelge 1, whole country).
    • ⛔ Sea trout (Salmo, deniz alası) — take prohibited.
    • ⛔ Orfoz / dusky grouper (Epinephelus marginatus) — TOTAL ban (Çizelge 1, RG 11.08.2024 №32629). Lagos (E. aeneus) is allowed with a limit (50 cm, 1/day, closed 1 Jun–31 Aug).
    • ⛔ Mediterranean monk seal (Monachus monachus) — strictly protected; in its shelter caves any diving/hunting/anchoring is banned (m.17/2).
    • ⛔ Sea turtles (Caretta caretta, Chelonia mydas) — protected, taking/disturbing prohibited.

    Rules change and the 6/2 tebliğ renews in September 2028. Before heading out, check with the district agriculture directorate (il/ilçe müdürlüğü) and the coast guard (Sahil Güvenlik); as a tourist, get the permit or go with a licensed guide.

    FAQ

    Are all 20+ points shore dives?

    No. Most are boat trips from the marina; Akkum and Ekmeksiz are the shore-accessible names.

    How far is Ekmeksiz?

    About 250 m offshore, so it is a long swim or boat-assisted reef.

    Is Teos a diving ban?

    No. local notes say it is an archaeological site on land, not a diving ban.

    What document applies?

    From 1 January 2026, the Amatör Balıkçı Belgesi must include the diving method.

    Can I use scuba or hunt at night?

    No. Breath-hold only, and no night spearfishing.
