Shearwater Swift GPS Transmitter

£426.00

The Shearwater Swift GPS Transmitter is the newest upgrade for divers who want precise surface GPS logging, reliable air integration, and seamless compatibility with every current Shearwater air-integrated dive computer. Instead of releasing GPS on a single new model, Shearwater has made this powerful feature available to the entire community—so you can enhance your existing Shearwater computer with pinpoint dive-site tracking.

Using multi-constellation GNSS (GPS, Galileo, BeiDou), the Swift GPS automatically captures your entry and exit coordinates at the surface and pairs with the redesigned Dive Shearwater app to display interactive dive-site maps, location names, and a world-view of your full dive history.

Alongside its new GPS features, the Swift GPS retains everything divers love about the classic Swift: real-time pressure monitoring, a sophisticated collision-avoidance system, fast and stable transmission, and a rugged 200 m depth rating—all powered by a user-replaceable CR2 lithium battery.


Features:
  • Precision GNSS Logging – Captures accurate surface GPS coordinates (entry + exit).
  • Works With ALL Shearwater AI Computers – Peregrine TX, Tern TX, Perdix 2, Perdix AI, Petrel 3, NERD 2 (firmware update required).
  • Interactive Dive Maps – View mapped locations, coordinates, site names and global dive history using the new Dive Shearwater app.
  • Air Integration + Gas Time Remaining – Real-time pressure data and accurate gas-time predictions.
  • Advanced Collision Avoidance – Reliable performance even when multiple transmitters are in use.
  • User-Replaceable Battery – CR2 3V lithium battery with up to 100 dive hours.
  • No-Tools Installation – Simple attachment to the first-stage HP port.
  • Rugged + Dive-Ready – 200 m depth rating, 300 bar pressure rating, designed for demanding underwater environments.

When the dive log is transferred to Dive Shearwater App, the log will display: 

  • Your dive location on a map 
  • A location name (if available) 
  • Entry and exit coordinates 
  • A world view of all your dive log locations 
  • If a user has multiple transmitters, only 1 needs to be GPS.

FAQs

How is the Swift GPS different from the Swift?

The Swift GPS provides the same air integration into your dive computer as the original Swift, with the added benefit of capturing your dive coordinates upon entry and exit. The GPS function does drain the battery quicker so there is also a difference in battery life between the two models.

Which dive computers are compatible with the Swift GPS?

All current Shearwater air integrated dive computers are compatible with Swift GPS. This includes the Perdix AI, Perdix 2, Petrel 3, NERD 2,  Teric, Tern TX, and  Peregrine TX.

Does the Swift GPS work underwater?

No—GPS signals do not transmit underwater. The transmitter captures surface coordinates just before and just after the dive.

Can I use Swift GPS with Shearwater Cloud?

No, the Swift GPS has been built to use exclusively with the new Dive Shearwater app. Your dive computer will also need to have the latest firmware downloaded.
