The Garrett ACE Apex control box is rainproof, and the lower shaft and coil are fully submersible. You can wade into the surf line and hunt wet sand without worrying about wave splash damaging the electronics. The control housing is not submersible, so keep it above water during beach hunts. This waterproof rating makes the Apex a practical choice for detectorists who hunt beaches, creeks, and shallow water but do not need full submersion for scuba or snorkeling.
