If you ever tried your hand at metal detecting on dry land, you know it can be a fun and rewarding experience. Searching for metal underwater requires slightly different equipment but it’s a great way to explore shipwrecks, marinas, and the areas surrounding reefs.

How are Underwater Metal Detectors Different?

Underwater metal detectors are specifically designed for use in an aquatic environment. Their sensitive electronics are protected by waterproof housings and their components are rated for use in environments with increased pressure conditions. If you plan to dive with your metal detector, make sure it’s rated for your intended depth.

The two most common varieties of underwater metal detectors are pulse induction (PI) and very low frequency (VLF). Many divers prefer PI detectors for use in saltwater, but you can also use VLF detectors in saltwater as long as they have a saltwater setting.

Salvage and Recovery Metal Detectors

While many of us think of salvage and recovery in terms of pirate ships packed with gold, contemporary ocean-going vessels also occasionally lose cargo containers or sink.

Metal detectors are a fantastic tool for salvage and recovery of cargo, supplies, and other items related to wreckage. Not only can they steer you toward the site of a shipwreck, but they also lead divers to find smaller recoverable items from below the surface.

Working in and Protecting the Ocean

Metal detectors have other important applications besides salvage and recovery. Utility technicians use metal detectors when inspecting and repairing underwater power and communication lines. These divers use cable trackers to find faults and breaks in cable lines to help island communities stay connected to the mainland.

When trash finds its way into the ocean and other bodies of water, metal detectors can help clean-up crews and environmentalists locate and remove it to protect aquatic life.

Accessories for Metal Detectors

Once you’ve found the perfect metal detector for your needs, helpful accessories like camera systems, battery packs, and detachable coils expand the functionality of your gear by extending dive time and providing greater visual information.
