What every diver should have in their kit

A save-a-dive kit
The most common dive-cancelling problems at a site are a snapped mask strap, a failed fin strap, a torn mouthpiece, and a leaking tank o-ring. All four are easy to fix in minutes if you have spares on hand. A well-stocked save-a-dive kit lives in your gear bag permanently — mask strap, fin strap with buckles, mouthpiece, snorkel keeper, tank o-rings, silicone grease, and a small flat repair tool. Each item costs a few dollars and takes seconds to swap. Every one of our Divemasters carries one.

Gear hangers — protect your investment
Hanging a wetsuit on a wire hanger or draped over a door compresses the neoprene and degrades the seams over time. A purpose-built wetsuit or BCD hanger with wide, padded arms preserves the shape of the suit and allows airflow on both sides for faster, more complete drying. A drysuit hanger that holds the suit upside down by the boots protects the neck seal from stretch and allows the interior to dry completely. After gear is a significant investment; the right hangers extend its service life considerably.

Surface marker buoy (SMB) — every diver needs one
An SMB is an inflatable tube you deploy at the end of a dive to signal your position to the boat or surface support before you ascend. It is one of the most important safety items a diver carries — without one, a boat cannot see you at the surface, especially in chop. Every diver should carry their own SMB rather than relying on the dive guide's. Paired with a finger reel, you can deploy it while still at depth and ascend along the line for a controlled, visible ascent.

Dive flag — required when diving in Canadian waters
In Canada, divers are required to display a dive flag at the surface whenever diving in navigable water. The standard is a red flag with a white diagonal stripe (diver down flag) mounted on a float. The flag signals boat traffic to stay clear of the area. An inflatable dive flag and float is compact, easy to carry, and sets up quickly at the dive site. If you dive in Canadian lakes, rivers, or ocean without a flag, you are taking an unnecessary risk from boat traffic.

Frequently asked questions

What accessories should a new diver buy first?

Beyond the core gear (mask, fins, wetsuit, BCD, regulator, computer), the most useful early additions are: a surface marker buoy and finger reel for ascent safety, a dive flag and float for Canadian diving, a save-a-dive kit with spare mask strap and mouthpiece, a gear bag for transporting equipment, and a wetsuit or BCD hanger for proper storage at home. These items collectively cost well under $300 and make every aspect of diving — from the car to the water to the boat to your gear room — noticeably easier and safer.

Do I need a dive knife and what is it actually used for?

A dive knife is primarily an entanglement safety tool, not a weapon. Its most practical use is cutting fishing line, monofilament, net, or kelp if you become entangled underwater — a situation that is rare but can escalate quickly without a cutting device. Most divers carry either a compact BCD-mounted knife or a line-cutting device (Sea Snip or similar) as a lighter, more convenient alternative. A full-size knife mounted on the leg is harder to reach quickly with one hand; a BCD-mounted knife or cutting tool is more accessible. We recommend that every diver carry at least a small cutting device on every dive.
