If you like to snorkel this introduction to scuba diving is the perfect next step to explore the underwater world. You will learn the basics of diving from your knowledgeable instructors who will lead you on a guided tour of St. Andrew's State Park or a local fresh water spring if Gulf conditions are unfavorable.Your introduction to scuba diving begins at the dive shop located right on the East end of Panama City Beach. After a brief classroom introduction to the science of diving and functional aspects of the scuba gear you will then be fitted for all the necessary gear. Then you will go to St. Andrew's State Park located just 1-mile (1.6 km) down the street for the in-water training and tour.
At the park, you will meet your instructor who will unload and prepare the gear. They will then go over the wildlife and conditions of the water to help orient you with the marine environment. Next you'll enter the water and briefly practice the basic skills of scuba diving and then begin the tour.
If the group is more than four (4) people it will be broken into two (2) groups to provide a small instructor to student ratio while on scuba. The participants not on scuba will be free to go snorkeling and explore the area from the surface until its their turn. The tour will last between 30-45 minutes.
Please note: transport to the park is not always available, please be prepared to make your own way there after check-in.
