Highlight was seeing a few eels coming our of their hiding spots and free swimming. Plus, the largest puffer fish I have ever seen in person.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 521 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $115

Join Panama City Diving for a four-hour boat trip to a shipwreck and bridge span off Panama City Beach. Certified divers visit sites 50 to 75 feet deep, with typical visibility near 30 feet and little current. DM Ben helps with gear and site briefings. Weights, snacks, fruit, water, and Gatorade are included.

“Safety is the key word for this dive shop. Set my mind at ease being by myself for the dive to say the least. The DM (Ben) could not have been more accommodating to the less experienced onboard. He (and the boat captain) made sure everyone knew how to use not only the rental gear, but also customers own gear that they weren’t sure how to setup. Visibility was decent given the recent storms (15-25’). All in all, definitely recommend for the novice as well as beginners in the diving world.”
