Are you looking for some cool gifts for scuba divers?
Choosing good gifts for divers can be hard work if you don’t dive yourself, so this guide is designed to help.
I’ve listed some of the best gifts around – ranging from practical accessories to fun ideas – and included suggestions to suit every budget.
TankH2O Scuba Tank Vacuum Insulated Water Bottle
A diving-themed gift is guaranteed to be a hit and this cool bottle actually won an award as the Dive Industry Product of the Year!
It is made from high-quality, food-grade stainless steel and comes in three different colors – blue, yellow, and white. At 24 oz (700 mL) it has a generous capacity and it is vacuum insulated, which makes it suitable for both hot and cold drinks.
It’s also lightweight but durable, with a silicone boot to stop it from slipping and preventing dents.
The textured matte finish stops condensation from forming on the outside and provides a solid grip, making it easy to hold. Meanwhile, the cap twists on and off easily and is completely leakproof.
Environmentally friendly, this fun bottle is totally recyclable and made from materials that are BPA, toxin, and phthalate-free.
ORCATORCH D560 Mini Scuba Dive Light Headlamp
A good light headlamp is one of the best gift ideas for divers as it is something practical that you know they will use often.
This mini scuba headlamp is a great choice, weighing less than 1.8 oz (50g) and just 3.6 in (92 mm) long!
It won’t take up much space or weight in a backpack, yet provides enough light to easily carry out tasks like putting on fins or reloading a speargun hands-free.
That’s thanks to the MX05 mask clip that comes with it, which can be used to attach it to either a dive mask or cave helmet, and which rotates a full 360°.
Two AA batteries are provided (although you only need one to power it) and it uses a simple rotary head switch for reliability underwater.
Sealed and protected with 2 O-rings and featuring a toughened glass lens, this light can be taken on underwater adventures to a maximum depth of 164 yards (150 meters).
T-2 Scuba Toolpack for Repairing & Adjusting Scuba Diving Regulators
Available in 3 different color combinations, this tool kit is an invaluable accessory for any diver. The stainless steel tools are incredibly strong and durable, including all of those commonly used for regulators.
These include flat and Phillips screwdrivers, 4 open-end wrenches, hex keys, and o ring pics. Everything comes packed into a compact and impact-resistant plastic handle with an over-molded thermoplastic TPU handle grip.
AKASO Brave 4 Wifi Underwater Camcorder
This is one of the best gifts for scuba divers letting them record their adventures. This fantastic action camera produces incredible photos and ultra HD videos.
The view angle can easily be adjusted between 4 different settings and there is a built-in gyroscope to prevent shaking and stabilize the image. This ensures that videos are as smooth as possible.
It is waterproof up to 98 feet (30 meters) underwater and – when used in diving mode with the solid waterproof case – can filter red light for better results.
By downloading a free app to a phone or tablet, videos can be easily shared and edited, with the wifi range extending up to 33 feet (10 meters).
The camera comes with some great accessories including 2 rechargeable 1050mAh batteries, with each battery capable of recording for up to 90 minutes. A remote control wristband is also provided for use out of the water.
Scuba Diving 6′ Surface Marker Signal Tube And Inflator
A surface marker is an important piece of safety gear for divers as it lets other people on the surface see their location from a distance.
This particular model is an excellent choice. It tucks away easily when not in use but is quick to inflate when needed.
It can be inflated orally by blowing into the inflation tube at the bottom, with only about 6 blows needed. Alternatively, it can be filled using a standard BC hose.
6 feet long (1.8 meters) when fully inflated, it is very easily spotted on the surface. It is also well-made and durable, plus it comes with a handy clip to secure it.
I’d Rather Be Scuba Diving Chrome License Plate Frame
This is a fun scuba diving gift that’s almost guaranteed to raise a smile!
This license plate frame comes with pre-drilled holes on top to make it easy to install on any license plate and is made from heavy-duty metal. Resistant to the weather, it is durable and built to last.
The plate is chrome-plated and is decorated with two full-color inserts. The colors are sharp, vibrant, and easy to see, clearly sharing your buddy’s love of scuba diving with the world!
Invicta Men’s Pro Diver Stainless Steel Automatic-Self-Wind Diving Watch
One of the best gifts for scuba divers, this beautiful watch is water resistant up to a depth of 984 ft (300m). It is stunning to look at, with a stainless steel case and strap, blue dial, and luminous hands.
Offering excellent value for money, it has a high-quality, solid feel and lots of great features.
These include an adjustable band, fold-over safety clasp, a screw-down crown that creates a seal and fastens securely, and 24 jewel bearings. It also has a unidirectional stainless steel bezel with a black and blue top bezel ring.
Born Of Water Scuba Dive Flag Distressed Adjustable Hat
Any diver would be delighted to receive this cool 6-panel hat featuring the instantly recognizable dive flag. It is available in black (with a red flag) or in gray (with a black flag).
The hat is designed to be stylish and comfortable to wear, with great attention to all the important details!
Featuring a distressed look, it has a low profile, rounded athletic shape, and is made from 100% cotton twill with a wool-like feel.
The six eyelets are well stitched for durability and it comes with a metal D-Ring adjustable buckle for a perfect fit between 6 5/8-7 5/8. There are also 6 rows of stitching on the visor, with a matching under-visor and a hideaway strap closure.
Parallaxx Wetsuit Changing Mat
A constant annoyance for divers is having to remove their gear in the car park, with dirt and debris stuck to their feet. This dirt then gets dragged through the wetsuit!
The solution is this handy changing mat, which also doubles up for use as a waterproof dry bag.
Durable, portable, and easy to use, it is made from 600D Polyester.
After standing on it to change, it can be used to pack everything away, keeping wet and sandy items away from the inside of the car.
It is large enough to hold a wetsuit very comfortably along with any additional beachwear. It also has a small internal pocket for items like keys, money, or a diving light.
A shoulder strap and padded handles make it easy to carry, plus it features drawstrings that can be tightened to make it more compact in size.
OlimpiaFit Quick Dry Towels
Your diving buddy will be forever grateful for this handy set of 3 microfiber towels.
Soft and smooth, they offer four times as much surface area as standard microfibers towels. This means they can absorb more water and dry up to 3 times as fast!
What’s more, they are odor-resistant, so you won’t be left with that damp towel smell when they are dry.
Three different sizes are included in the set – a body towel, a head towel, and a face towel.
