Panama City Dive Charters
Scuba Diving, Spearfishing and Private Custom Dive Charters to the Best Wrecks and Reefs offshore of Panama City Beach. We now also offer scuba diving classes!
Our goal is to get you diving the shipwrecks and reefs you want to see in the most comfort possible. Our dive boat has a fully enclosed cabin to keep Summer rain showers and Winter winds from affecting your time topside. Drinks, fresh fruit and various snacks are always provided on our dive trips. If you need rental scuba tanks they can be waiting for you on the boat. When you are on our dive charter, all you have to do is dive. Whether you are diving or spearfishing our charter staff is knowledgeable, well trained and professional.... and they always have your safety and comfort in mind.
