The 2022 CMAS World Spearfishing Cup for Clubs will take place from the 28th of April to the 1° of May, in Croatia, in the town of Nin, based in the county of Zadar. This is the great news after the postponement by the Croatian Federation of Sports Fishing on the Sea and Club Harpun from Zadar of the 2020 Cup due to the Covid pandemy. The 1° CMAS World Spearfishing Cup for Clubs was held in 2018.
The World Spearfishing Cup for Clubs
The World Spearfishing Cup for Clubs will take place in two consecutive days of competition of five hours each one, in the Nin archipelago. This geographic area will be divided in three areas named “Competition areas”, two primary areas where competition will take place and one reserve area in case the weather conditions make it unsafe for people and boats to operate in the primary areas. These areas will be named Zone A -, Zone B – and Reserve zone.
The official visit period without fishing and taking guns in the water are two weeks = 14 days + the day before the World Cup starts = 15 days: since 12th to 27th April 2022. (both included).
