About this trip
Located on the Emerald Coast, Panama City Beach is one of the most beautiful beaches in the country. And with over 25 dive sites, locally, we will be able to find beauty above and below the water.
This is a great trip for new and experienced divers. The trips typically consist of depths between 40'-80'. Average visibility is between 30'-50'. The dive sites are mostly wrecks or artificial reefs and very easy to navigate. There is an abundance of life. It's not uncommon to see lion fish, scorpion fish, goliath grouper, or even sharks.
If you are new to diving and looking to gain more experience, you can also complete your Advanced Open Water Certification while in Panama City. Just choose the add on for PADI Advanced Open Water Diver ($310) when booking.
