Francisco lost his ring and a holder while playing volleyball in the water at Perequê. The items were at a depth around thigh level, in calm waters, in front of the Vô Jaques inn.
I arrived at the location and, after 30 minutes of searching, I was able to locate both pieces of jewelry. The recovery moved Francisco and his family, who were happy with the outcome.
This was another recovery carried out by the Dr. Detector team, demonstrating the effectiveness of using metal detectors in situations like this.
Anyone who has lost something in the area can call an Accredited Detectorist to try to recover their items.


Related questions and answers
I lost my ring in the sea or in the water. Can it be found?
It can be attempted. Detectorists with waterproof equipment search in shallow water, and some dive (see what each piece does in detector, pinpointer, and underwater coil). The chances decrease with waves, currents, high tide, and the passage of time. Read the full answer in the guide.
I lost it in deep water or in the middle of the sea.
This is the most difficult case. The search may require diving and favorable conditions, and the chance is lower, as it depends on depth, visibility, and currents. Request a quote and understand the limits before deciding. Read the full answer in the guide.

Passo a passo imediato: perdeu uma joia na praia ou na água?
Faça isto agora, nesta ordem, antes de procurar por conta própria:
- Pare e marque o ponto: isole a área onde o objeto deve ter caído e fotografe referências fixas ao redor (poste, quiosque, posto de guarda-vidas, pedra, árvore).
- Não cave e não deixe muita gente pisar ou revirar a areia: isso afunda e espalha o objeto e atrapalha o detector.
- Anote o horário da perda e se foi na areia seca, na areia molhada ou na água: a maré muda o terreno em poucas horas.
- Chame logo um detectorista profissional credenciado da rede Dr. Detector na sua região: quanto antes a busca começa, maiores as chances (sem garantia de resultado). Pedir um detectorista agora.
