Where to buy

In case you always dreamed of becoming a treasure hunter but never had the funds to make it a reality, take a close look at the underwater metal detector released by National Geographic. This easy-to-use tool comes in 2 styles – junior and professional – and is an optimal variant for every scuba diver out there.

It has got a 10-inch search coil that is fully waterproof and thus submergible under the water.

The 3 detection modes built into the device allow you to easily filter out garbage and find the exact metals you are looking for. To foster successful hunting, the manufacturer further incorporated 4 sensitivity modes that enable you to detect underground treasures buried as deep as 12 inches beneath the surface.

The data appearing on the LCD display is quite easy to decipher, which gives you the opportunity to make the most out of your searching experience.
