An average scuba diver can stay underwater for 45 to 60 minutes on a 40-foot dive. Many factors affect tank duration, including depth, tank volume, and the diver's air consumption rate.
In 2014, the Curvier beaked whale broke the record for the mammal that could hold its breath underwater the longest.The longest dive was recorded at 2 hours and 17 minutes. It was previously thought that elephant seals could hold their breath the longest, with a record of 2 hours. Although they arenât mammals, sea turtles hold the record for the animal that can hold its breath the longest underwater. When resting, sea turtles can stay underwater for days. On average, sea turtles can hold their breath for 4 â 7 hours. Green sea turtles can hold their breath for as long as five hours, whereas Loggerhead sea turtles hold the record for the longest documented dive, remaining underwater for longer than 10 hours.
