You will learn the benefits of diving with a sidemount setup and how to create a tec-sidemount harness. Practical training will take place in one confined-water session and four open-water dives. You'll begin with two tanks and expand to at least two additional tanks.



Sidemount Technical Diving Panama City Beach's driving concept is to create a clubhouse. This is the hub of a group of divers. It's a place where they can meet up, plan their next adventures and provide support. All are welcome. Our fundamental belief has driven our expansion. We believe that the status-quo is not enough. We have been continuously examining the systems in place for diving and asked ourselves whether they are safe, efficient, fun and enjoyable for our customers and the diving community.

Sidemount Gear


With over 200 dives per year, we were certified Open Water Scuba Instructors (PADI), over a decade before. Since then, we have been active instructors in Arizona, Florida, Mexico and New Jersey. Both of us were able to obtain our PADI Master Scuba Diving Diver Trainer rating in less time than a year. In addition, we also teach several specialty courses. On average, we do over 150 dives per year. The majority of our dives last for more than an hour.

Tec Sidemount Diver


Sidemount Technical Diving Panama City Beach - We're divers first and instructors only second. Yes, we're instructors and mentors. But that comes after our diving. Too many instructors are too involved with teaching and don't want to dive without their students. We have seen this happen. We don't think so! We have made a promise to ourselves that we won't do more training dives than our own. We also pledged to spend at minimum twice as much time in water performing our own dives than training dives. This will ensure that we do not lose focus on giving the best dive instruction possible. In addition, we establish long-lasting mentoring relationships with our students. Many of our students are now our dive buddies. They have helped us with our survey and exploration projects in Florida, Mexico.

This idea seems to work. The boat was able to grow a diveshop to serve its patrons. The shop has since evolved to a full-service retail and training establishment. We can help you plan your next dive adventure or learn to dive the first time.
