North County Depth Finders
The premier Spearfishing and Freediving Club of San Diego, California
2025 BIG BUG
Introducing our newest competition - the NCDF BIG BUG! This competition starts at 12am Friday Oct 10 and runs until weigh-in at Pour House, Oceanside on Sunday Oct 12 at 3pm.
NCDF exists to create space for spearos and freedivers to connect and develop their sport.
NCDF, which began as a way for veteran spearos to split gas and share stories, has grown into an invaluable local resource for helping educate and connect people interested in freediving and spearfishing. Club members follow our core values of selectivity, sustainability, and safety.

Win a freediving course!
2025 courses have already been awarded. 2026 course will be awarded in the summertime.
We provide a paid-for free diving class to
one lucky applicant each year!
Giving young divers the tools to navigate the underwater world safely.
Monthly Meetings
Our meetings are 2nd Thursdays at Pour House in South Oceanside from 7-9pm. All are welcome so bring a friend and be sure to support the restaurant by ordering food or a drink. We meet at the outside seating area, and there is no age limit for attendees. We give updates on events, raffle spearfishing goodies, give out club gear and share info to help you become a better diver.
