Underwater Recovery Across Vancouver Island

Things fall in the water constantly — phones, keys, glasses, tools, fishing gear. In Victoria, Sidney, and marinas across Vancouver Island, the harbour floor is usually mud, sand, or gravel, and most items sit right where they landed. The sooner you call, the better your chances, but we've recovered items weeks and months after they were lost.

We use systematic search patterns and underwater metal detection equipment to locate items on the harbour floor. Visibility varies across Vancouver Island — some days it's 15 feet, some days it's 3 feet. Our search techniques work regardless. Most marina recoveries are straightforward because the bottom is relatively flat.

For larger recoveries — outboard motors, anchors, dock hardware, sunken dinghies — we use lift bags and rigging to bring items up safely. We serve Victoria, Sidney, Sooke, Cowichan Bay, Nanaimo, and everywhere in between.
