Local Metal Detector helps you discover the clubs, stores, and detectorists that make up the hobby — from local dig sites to detecting shops on the other side of the world.
We believe every part of the hobby deserves to be found. Local Metal Detector was built to give clubs, stores, and detectorists — whether a detecting club in Yorkshire, a metal detector shop in Texas, or a solo detectorist in Otago — a living map presence the whole community can discover instantly.
Unlike generic listing sites, our interactive map puts you exactly where you belong: on the map, in the field, visible to fellow detectorists near and far.
