Scuba Diving Search and Recovery

Losing something valuable in the water can be stressful, but in many cases, it can be found. As a trained recreational scuba diver with experience in controlled search patterns, buoyancy management, and underwater navigation, We offer Search & Recovery services for items lost in ponds, rivers, and lakes across the GTA and surrounding regions.

​

Whether it’s a phone, keys, jewellery, tools, fishing gear, or another personal item, I conduct a safe, methodical underwater search using established recreational diving techniques.

​​

​

What we Offer

​

• Initial assessment of the site, conditions, and likelihood of recovery

• Structured underwater search patterns appropriate for visibility and depth

• Use of lift bags for small recoveries when required

• Surface support and safety procedures during all operations

• Clear communication about search limitations, risks, and realistic expectations

​​​

​

Important Notes

 

This is a recreational-level search service, not a public safety dive operation. I do not enter hazardous environments such as:

​

• Fast‑moving water

• Overhead environments (caves, ice, wreck penetration)

• Contaminated water

• Areas requiring commercial diving certification

​

Safety is always the priority. If conditions are unsafe or visibility makes recovery impossible, I will advise you before any dive begins.

Your Recovery Starts with a Conversation

 

If you’ve lost something in the water, contact Tactical Aquatics with:

​

• What was lost

• When and where it entered the water

• Approximate depth

• Water conditions (if known)

​

The more information you provide, the better the chance of a successful recovery.
