Scuba Safety Gear | Essential Equipment for Safe Diving
Scuba diving is an adventure—but it must be a safe one. At Abyss Scuba Diving, we offer safety gear built specifically for Sydney’s unique diving conditions, from surf exits to deeper offshore dives. Whether you’re just starting out or a seasoned pro, the right safety tools give you confidence and control underwater.
Why Safety Equipment Matters
The ocean is unpredictable—currents, entanglement, and low visibility can turn quickly. With the right gear, you’re not only protected, but also empowered to respond effectively. Our safety range is built around three critical items every diver should own:
Cutting Tools
These compact tools are a must-have. If you’re caught in fishing line or kelp, a quality dive knife or line cutter is essential. Choose stainless steel or titanium blades for Sydney’s saltwater environment, and always mount your cutter where you can reach it fast.
SMBs, DSMBs & Reels
Surface marker buoys keep you visible. Whether you’re surfacing in a drift or waiting for pickup, a brightly coloured SMB with reflective tape and a compact reel ensures you’re spotted. We recommend a closed-cell style for reliability and easy inflation.
Marine Rescue GPS Devices
If you dive offshore, a rescue GPS may save your life. These small waterproof devices transmit your location to nearby vessels or authorities. While optional for local shore dives, they’re invaluable for deeper, boat-access sites.
