“I don’t know the secret of happiness, but I know I’ve never been sad in the ocean.”

This caption overlaid a recent social-media video post by SUBLUE, an innovative leader in the underwater scooter market. No matter what kind of diver you are—recreational, technical, professional scuba instructor or a snorkeler thinking about getting certified—you know that feeling of complete bliss once you are underwater! It’s a passion that’s shared by the team at SUBLUE.

A large part of SUBLUE’s mission is its commitment to ensuring that the users of its products are having fun. And who wouldn’t have fun while using a scooter to get around underwater? For anyone who loves being in the ocean, underwater scooters add excitement and fun to every dive, snorkel or swim session. You can reach far-off dive spots, save energy and stay underwater longer. On a single dive, you can visit adjacent dive sites or explore larger areas, such as a massive shipwreck. An underwater scooter can help you navigate strong currents or get to a secret spot that’s usually inaccessible. If you’re an underwater photographer or videographer, they can provide stability. In an emergency, an underwater scooter can help you get to the surface or reach assistance faster. Best of all, you don’t need to be a scuba professional to enjoy underwater scooters. They’re super easy to use, making them perfect for everyone, from beginners to seasoned divers looking for one of the best underwater scooters for snorkeling and diving.

The SUBLUE Difference

SUBLUE is a brand within Deepinfar Ocean Technology Inc., a provider of full-range underwater robotics. Of course, lots of companies make underwater scooters, so what sets SUBLUE apart from its competitors?

Let’s begin with the parameters of underwater scooters. The core performance metrics of underwater scooters are thrust, speed, and endurance. Thrust, determined by motor power and propulsion design, directly affects speed. Endurance depends on battery capacity and power efficiency, as larger batteries and lower consumption allow for longer operation. At approximately 800W of total power, users can reach speeds up to 2 m/s. SUBLUE scooters are engineered to optimize all three metrics, with verified performance data that ensures transparency and builds user trust.

The brand uses premium materials, cutting-edge technology and pioneering innovation to ensure every product is meticulously crafted. Every detail embodies the company’s commitment to superior quality. SUBLUE is also committed to developing more accessible and user-friendly underwater scooters for recreational divers and snorkelers, including features like low battery warnings and safety mechanisms. SUBLUE’s products are diverse and suitable for different user groups and scenarios, meeting a wide range of needs. The company has sold more than 200,000 underwater scooters globally (in over 80 countries). They make scooters that are compact for travel, appropriate for kids, perfect for pool fun, useful for swim training, and ideal for snorkelers and certified scuba divers. They also make accessories divers and snorkelers can appreciate, such as a mask and snorkel set, waterproof phone cases and a waterproof LED light. Underwater photographers will love the camera attachments that make it easy to take pictures or shoot video while using a SUBLUE scooter. They even developed the world’s first dual-motor handheld underwater scooter.

“My SUBLUE underwater scooter has good buoyancy and is easy to operate. Despite providing strong thrust, its size is surprisingly compact. But what really made me fall in love with it is its versatility beyond just diving. When we are on the water with the kids, it instantly transforms into a floating toy, with the children laughing as they ride on it. In short, it is suitable for anyone who loves the water.” —Lauren, freediver
