Since 2009, Top Shot Spearfishing has guided more than 20,000 guests beneath Hawai‘i’s surface — most of them complete beginners who left as hunters.
Jeremy took his first breath-hold dive in the cold Pacific Northwest in 1993 and never stopped. Years refining his craft on O‘ahu’s North Shore led to a simple realization: nobody was teaching this — safely, properly, from zero.
Top Shot Spearfishing was born on Maui in 2009 and expanded to the Big Island five years later. Today, all of our lessons and guided dives run from our Kona Coastline Training Facility on the Big Island — home to the calmest, clearest, most consistent conditions in Hawai‘i.
The format Jeremy pioneered — one morning, land skills to first hunt — has become the world’s most successful introduction to spearfishing.
