Search and Recovery

Have you ever dropped something in the water? Are you looking for lost “treasure”? Underwater Dive Center’s Search and Recovery Diver Specialty course will teach you effective ways to find and recover underwater objects.

During your course you learn search and recovery dive planning, organization, procedures, techniques and problem solving. You learn how to locate large and small objects using search patterns, and various ways for lifting them to the surface. Not only do these skills make you more capable and confident in the water, but most Search and Recovery Divers eventually end up searching for and recovering something they lost themselves.
