The diver worked very efficiently. From starting to put gear on to acquiring the phone was no longer than 10 minutes. Very good quality. If you need a to find something dropped into a canal, these are the people to call. Very much appreciated their work and friendship.

Amazing team!
On the day of my mother-in-law's funeral, I received her ring as a family keepsake. Just a few hours later, I accidentally lost it under a deck along one of Leiden's canals. Needless to say, I was heartbroken.
Even though the space where the ring had fallen was extremely cramped, Jochem, with Marja providing surface support, managed to find it within minutes on his very first dive.
I am very grateful for their help. Recovering the ring meant so much to me, and I can't recommend them highly enough.

Thank you so much for sharing your touching story. We are incredibly grateful that our professional divers, Jochem and Marja, could help you during such a difficult time. Losing a precious family keepsake like your late mother-in-law's ring is devastating, and we understand completely how much recovering it meant to you.
We are absolutely thrilled that Jochem managed to find the ring on his very first dive with Marja providing vital surface support.
Thank you for your high recommendation of Recovery Divers. Knowing that we could bring this invaluable piece of jewelry back to your family means the world to us.

Even though it was late at night, they reacted immediately when my phone fell into the canal and came to find it. They were very understanding and helpful.

Thank you so much for your fantastic review! Accidents don't keep regular business hours, which is why our Recovery Divers team is always ready to respond immediately—even late at night.
We completely understand how stressful it is to watch your phone drop into a canal, along with all the personal data and memories on it. Our dedicated divers are fully equipped for night dives and underwater search operations to recover lost electronics quickly and efficiently.
We are thrilled we could help retrieve your phone and turn a stressful night into a relief. Thank you for trusting our recovery service!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! Losing your phone in the sea while traveling can be an absolute nightmare, especially when you are far from home and completely unsure of what to do.
We are absolutely thrilled that our underwater recovery team could step in and help you out. Saltwater can be very harsh on lost electronics, so a fast response is always key. We are incredibly grateful to the ladies who recommended our services to you, and we are so glad we could retrieve your phone successfully!
Thank you for trusting Recovery Divers during your trip. We wish you a wonderful and safe remainder of your travels!
Awesome service - iPhone recovery in Utrecht!
I dropped my iPhone in a canal in Utrecht in the afternoon. I assumed it was gone for good. The waiter told me about Recovery Divers. We called and they said they would come at midnight. I was appropriately skeptical but they showed up with a pile of dive gear and were very nice and extremely professional. True professionals with a passion for their work! They were awesome! I could not be more grateful!!

We contacted recovery divers as my husband knocked his phone in the canal. The guys were amazing they responded quickly and kept us in the loop. They arrived at the location before the dive ti introduce themselves and talk us through what happens. They found the phone within 1 minute. They were the most genuine down to earth people. Their skills are unbelievable. Would highly recommend and wouldn't have an issues to recommend and use them again. What an amazing service and thing they do. Brilliant guys!! Thank you so so much!

Dear Marika,
Thank you so much for this glowing 5-star review! We are still smiling about that "proposal with a splash" in the Amsterdam canals. It’s definitely a story for the grandchildren!
We are thrilled that we could help your husband recover his phone so quickly. Finding a Samsung in the canal within just one minute is fast even for our standards, but we were determined to save those precious engagement photos! It was a pleasure to meet you both, and we’re glad our no cure - no pay service gave you some peace of mind during such an exciting (and slightly stressful) trip.
We hope the rest of your stay was a bit drier, and we wish you a wonderful marriage! Should any other valuables decide to take an unscheduled swim in the future, you know where to find the Recovery Divers team.
Best regards,
The team at Recovery Divers

Thank you for your amazing review and for trusting Recovery Divers!
Great to hear that our diver was able to recover your cell phone from the water, even after more than 24 hours. Situations like this can be stressful, and that’s exactly when Recovery Divers steps in to locate and retrieve lost items quickly and professionally.
Even after a long time underwater, a successful recovery can still make a big difference, so we’re glad your phone is working again.
If anything ever ends up in the water again, hopefully not, you know that Recovery Divers and our divers are ready to help.
Kind regards,
Team Recovery Divers

Thank you so much, Erica!
Even on Easter Sunday, we’re always ready to help—because we know that losing a phone in the canals of Utrecht never comes at a convenient moment. We’re glad we could recover your friend’s phone quickly and safely from the water, and save them the cost and hassle of replacing it.
At Recovery Divers, we specialize in retrieving lost items like phones from canals, rivers, and other waters, using professional diving equipment and a bit of determination (even during holidays 😉). Your kind words about our promptness and effort mean a lot to us.
Thanks again for trusting Recovery Divers—and hopefully next time, the phone stays dry!

We had a great experience with RecoveryDivers. Communication was quick and easy, and within minutes they approved our request. Marja immediately drove from Rotterdam to Harlingen (about 200 km) and was incredibly kind and helpful throughout the whole process.
They were very professional and got the job done quickly. The price was more than fair, and afterwards Marja also gave us helpful advice on how to dry the car keys and other important tips.
They truly saved us within just a few hours and spared us a lot of time, money, and stress. Highly recommended!

Thank you so much for your detailed review, Josh!
We’re really glad to hear you had a great experience with Recovery Divers. Fast and clear communication is something we value highly, especially in situations where every minute counts—like recovering lost items from the water. Great to hear that everything went smoothly from request to approval.
Marja will definitely appreciate your kind words. Driving from Rotterdam to Harlingen is quite the trip, but when it comes to recovering valuables like car keys from the water, distance is just a detail for us. We’re happy she could assist you professionally, quickly, and with the personal touch we aim for in every recovery.
It’s also good to hear that the advice on drying your car keys and handling water-damaged items was helpful. Recovering objects like keys, phones, or other valuables is one thing—but helping you get the most out of them afterwards is just as important.
At Recovery Divers, we specialize in fast and reliable recovery of lost items from canals, rivers, and open water across the Netherlands. Knowing we saved you time, money, and stress within just a few hours is exactly why we do what we do (and yes, sometimes that means a 200 km drive without hesitation 😉).
Thanks again for your recommendation, Josh!
Diving Success
Marja and Jochem were great to work with. I dropped my phone during lunch in Leiden, and was able to use my husband’s phone to reach out on WhatsApp- We had a meeting time figured out in moments, planning to meet in the evening.
Marja made the process as smooth as possible, and ended up finding my phone and attached wallet on her second dive. She provided instructions and a plastic bag with silica gels and 12 hours later, my phone was good as new. Thank you so much team!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Kira and Fern!
Losing a phone during a nice lunch in Leiden is never part of the plan, but we are glad you reached out to Recovery Divers so quickly via WhatsApp. Fast communication really makes a difference when it comes to recovering a phone from water, and it was great that we could schedule everything within minutes and meet the same evening.
Marja will really appreciate your kind words. Finding your phone and wallet on the second dive shows exactly how we approach every recovery: focused, methodical, and with the right professional diving equipment to locate lost items even when visibility is poor. Recovering phones, wallets, and other valuables from canals and waterways in cities like Leiden is something we do on a daily basis, and we always aim for the best possible result.
Great to hear that the drying instructions and silica gel helped bring your phone back to life. Recovering a water damaged phone is one thing, but helping you get it working again is just as important to us.
Thank you again for trusting Recovery Divers. We are happy we could turn a stressful moment into a successful diving recovery. And next time, we hope your phone enjoys the view from above the water 😉
