This magazine is aimed at freedivers and freediving spearfishers around the world. (Scuba divers need not apply.) And it certainly hits its mark. Freediving and freedive spearfishing are growing in popularity, and this magazine is reflecting that growth.
The layout, photos and graphics are incredible and have earned this magazine numerous awards and critical acclaim.
While the focus is primarily on freediving and spearfishing in Hawaii, the magazine provides ample attention to other locations around the world as well.
This magazine is a great resource for both the novice and the more experienced divers. Each issue is well edited and beautifully put together. The artistic talent and real world experience of the staff is evident in every issue. You will find yourself reading every issue cover to cover the moment it arrives in your mailbox.

This is by far my favorite magazine. The photography is awesome. The stories are written by the spearo's. All of the new gear that you gotta have and all of the places you have to dive. The only down side is that it's a quarterly mag, but it's worth the wait. You can even order back issues!

Skin diving is a large umbrella that covers everything from being symbiotic with the underwater world on a breath hold to competitive freediving for depth. In that large umbrella Spearfishing is also covered. However this is all the magazine chooses to focus on. Usually by doing so with pictures of men with the biggest fish they could catch while in exotic locations that only the most affluent could afford.
