Dive container for car keys

[gr8jab]

Great suggestions. My POV is old, it has a key fob, but I can unlock mechanically. On many of the rental cars now they only option is remote entry and there is no key or key hole to unlock. In Bonaire, I took the keys with me as the trucks did not have electronic locks. But when in Florida diving Blue Heron Bridge, I am not too keen leaving the keys hidden under the car somewhere while out diving.

Thanks for all the suggestions!

In this specific case, I've got a good solution. At BHB you have to have a float/flag. Buy a cheap water-resistant pouch (like for a phone), put the rental car keys in it, and tie it to the the float. It will stay water-tight at the surface (no pressure). Since you're not taking it to depth, it doesn't need to be as rugged. I bought one for $6 on amazon.

good day,

I am looking for recommendations on small containers which I can carry my keys in during shore dives. Needs to be water proof to max rec depths. I really am not seeing much out there. Thank you in advance.

Just put this under your parked car. Nobody will touch it.

Given the insane prices of replacement fobs (300-$1K), I prefer the lockbox solutions secured to the vehicle. I don't need another O-ring to worry about leaking or more crap to carry.
