MULTIPLE DIVE PROFILES
Enjoy support for single- and multi-gas dive profiles, including trimix.
NDL AWARE™ DEPTH METRICS
Extend your bottom time with NDL Aware depth metrics that work in real time to show how specific depth changes can impact your no-decompression limit (NDL).
SURFACE GPS AND COMPASS
Mark your surface entry and exit points with advanced satellite connectivity. Find your target before you dive with this GPS tool, and navigate underwater with the 3-axis digital compass.
ECO-FRIENDLY DESIGN
100% of the plastic used in the dive computer’s housing and bezel is made with recycled ocean-bound plastics.
DYNAMIC DEPTH CHART
See your depth history during a dive, and get a clear understanding of where you have been and how it affects your decompression plan to help guide your ascent.
DIVE BANDS
The comfortable and durable hinged silicone dive band fits easily over your wetsuit. Descent X30 is also compatible with 26 mm QuickFit® bands, including the bungee mount.
DIVE LOG
Store and review data for all your dives — and share via the Garmin Dive™ app.
GARMIN DIVE APP
Pair the app with your Descent dive computer to automatically sync and upload your dive logs.
WATER THERMOMETER
Find the thermocline with the onboard water temperature sensor.
SURFACE INTERVAL TRACKING
This feature helps you plan multiple dives in a day to ensure your body has enough time to properly off-gas.
STAY ALERT
Increase situational awareness with audible and vibration alerts.
INREACH® CONNECTIVITY
When paired with an inReach satellite communicator and dive case, remotely trigger an SOS message when you are above the surface1.
SETUP SHARING
Before a dive, avoid manually entering dive settings across both your primary and backup dive computers. Instead, seamlessly synchronise two compatible Descent dive computers, ensuring that each can function as a fully interchangeable backup to the other. You can sync dive settings such as gases, conservatism and alerts.
