Bringing expertise and closure to families in times of tragedy.
California Recovery Divers is an experienced group of dedicated volunteers who assist families and law enforcement to recover drowning victims.
We are a volunteer-powered nonprofit. Every dollar we receive goes directly to our mission—not salaries, overhead, or unrelated projects. We exist to serve.
Technological expertise.
We use state of the art sidescan sonar technology to generate imagery of our underwater environments. Continuous use and training on these tools enables us to locate targets with great precision.
Custom software.
Ensuring methodical and complete searches is critical in black water recovery. We bring custom built software developed from decades of iteration to track our searches and increase our accuracy.
Continuous training.
All our volunteers go through continuous, rigorous training and hold public safety diving certifications. We draw from Emergency Services volunteers and active duty military personnel to build our teams.
