Yes, orienteering compasses will work just fine under water.

But for a dedicated diving compass, the Suunto SK7 in unbeatable.

I keep mine on a retractor so I can have it out in front of me.

If you're looking down and reading your compass, you just may bonk your head on the side of the ship you're trying to find.
