During World War I he was active in the Grand Fleet and the Dover Patrol, being promoted to Lieutenant in 1915. In 1918 he was in command of , a destroyer engaged in anti-submarine and escort duty. From 1919 to 1926 Wyatt was engaged in surveying, mainly in Australia and the Torres Strait, with a period working on the east coast of England and the Thames Estuary. In 1922 he married the Australian actress Tien Hogue. In 1926 he took command of the HMS Ormonde surveying in British Guiana, and then worked in home waters for two years in HMS Beaufort. He was promoted to Commander in 1929, and again took command of Ormonde for surveing work in the Persian Gulf and Cyprus. In 1932-1934 Wyatt commanded , surveying the coast of Labrador, and working in the West Indies in the winter. He published a detailed account of the surveying work in Labrador, in a largely uncharted area with many islands and rocky narrow channels, frequent fog, and icebergs. Peparing a baseline for triangulation involved considerable levelliing and infilling of swamp, releasing mosquitoes so numerous that they covered large areas of the men's bodies. On one occasion (23 Sep 1932) the ship struck a pinnacle rock, and was only refloated with difficulty. At the end of the 1934 season a winter party was left behind to continue land-based surveying. From 1935 to 1937 Wyatt was Superintendent of Charts at the Hydrographic Office. From 1937 until the outbreak of war in 1939 he commanded HMS Endeavour, surveying in New Zealand waters. He was promoted to the rank of Captain on 30 June 1938. In 1940, he became Assistant Hydrographer under John Edgell, and in 1942 was again in command of Challenger supporting the Eastern Fleet.
