Surface Marker Buoys (SMBs) & Lift Bags: Essential Safety Gear for Divers
Whether you're a seasoned tech diver or new to the underwater world, Surface Marker Buoys (SMBs) are indispensable tools in every diver's arsenal. These brightly colored buoys help divers signal their position to others in the water, providing an additional layer of safety amidst potential diver, swimmer, or boat traffic in the area.
SMBs also serve as communication tools, with different colors conveying specific messages. For instance, a yellow SMB signals underwater issues or emergencies, while orange or pink SMBs indicate the presence of a diver beneath the surface.
Available in various sizes and capacities, SMBs come in different models suitable for both surface deployment and underwater use, such as Delayed Surface Marker Buoys (DSMBs).
For technical divers, SMBs facilitate decompression stops by allowing them to hang at a fixed depth. Explore our range of SMBs and lift bags to ensure your diving adventures are both safe and informed.
