Practical information about choosing, using and ordering metal detecting equipment in the United Kingdom.
You do not need a licence to metal detect in the UK, but you do need permission from the landowner before detecting on any private land. Certain areas, including scheduled monuments and Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs), are completely off-limits. Always check local regulations and join the National Council for Metal Detecting (NCMD) for the latest code of conduct.
Depth depends on the model, the size of the target, and soil conditions. Our entry-level Explorer Pro X1 can locate a coin-sized object at around 25 cm, while our professional Deep Seeker Pro reaches up to 60 cm for larger targets. Smaller items like rings will be detected at shallower depths, typically 15–30 cm.
Absolutely. The Explorer Pro X1 and Terra Hunter V2 were designed specifically with newcomers in mind. They feature preset modes, automatic ground balancing and clear visual displays so you can start detecting straight away. We also include a printed quick-start guide and access to our online video tutorials with every purchase.

Yes. Our Aqua Find Waterproof is fully submersible to 60 metres and specifically engineered for saltwater beach use with specialised salt-ground balance modes.
