The Grey Ghost is an extended offshore dive, taking 6-8 hours to reach. She’s only a 105' vessel, but what makes this dive spectacular is the vast assortment of aquatic life. She came to rest at the edge of a natural reef that was augmented with drops of fiberglass boats and scrap steel, making this spot an ideal fish habitat.

All over the region are historic wrecks. Skin Diver Magazine has named Panama City Beach the wreck diving capital of the South because of these and other artificial corals.
Panama City Beach is a paradise for both divers as well as non-divers. You won't want to go to the beach or feel guilty for taking your family out to PCB while you dive. If your partner is certified, you can make a diving trip part of a romantic weekend in Panama City Beach.
The snow-white sugar sand of St Andrew’s Park and Shell Island are picture-perfectly beautiful. Dolphin cruises abound, and there are even attractions like Pier Park, Shipwreck Island, and Ripley’s Believe it or Not for land lovers. At night, you’ll find some of the best fresh seafood around (the she-crab soup at Firefly is legit the best we have EVER had!!) and golden sunsets over the turquoise blue water.
You can see why Panama City Beach is Florida's second most visited dive site. You can also take a dive in the Gulf of Mexico, where you will find marine life and stunning underwater scenery.
Never hold your breath
As every good entry-level dive student knows, this is the most important rule of scuba. And for good reason — breath holding underwater can result in serious injury and even death. In accordance with Boyle's law, the air in a diver's lungs expands during ascent and contracts during descent.
As you become a qualified scuba diver, you learn the basics of an essential scuba system. A cylinder, weights, an exposure suit, regulators, BCD gauge and timing device, mask and fins are the bare essentials.
