The region is home to many historic wrecks. Skin Diver Magazine called Panama City Beach the “Wreck Diving Capital of the South” because of the abundance of artificial reefs.
Scuba Dive Panama City Beach keeps dive trips to 14 divers. This is to ensure everyone's comfort and safety. If we have space, any of our charters will be open to the public. We generally run 2 trips per week during the season.
This site is unique because of its structure. Divers can explore the wheelhouse from 40 feet below. The deck is located at 66 feet down and has access to the cargo holds. On the sand, the ship's head (toilet), can be seen outside the wreck. It is adorned with a smiling skull. You can also find plenty of sealife at the nearby Warsaw Reef.

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.
