Sidemount Technical Diving Panama City Beach began as a clubhouse. The central hub of a diving community, a place for divers to meet up and plan their next adventure. All are welcomed. The core idea behind our expansion has been the recognition that the status Quo is not good enough. We have constantly examined the systems used in the diving industry and tried to determine if they were safe, efficient, FUN, and safe for customers and divers.


Our teaching philosophy is simple. We are mentors first and instructors last. We don't just teach diving. We go out on the water and dive. We are happy to answer your questions, and serve as a resource. We may not be able answer every question, but we will refer you to the person who can. We want to increase your dive knowledge and experience. It is important to ensure that an instructor has not paid for instructor ratings and been awarded the rating. Make sure the instructor has dive experience.

The sunset hours are a magical hour to be out on water. The sun becomes golden, and the sky is painted with colors that almost seem unreal. There's no way to not be taken in by it. It will bring you closer to nature, give you a feeling that is rare for most people. A sunset cruise will calm your mind and help you breathe again.
