DIVE OUR AREA

The waters off Panama City hold an abundance of marine life. An aggressive artificial reef building project has produced numerous dive sites, from sunken war ships of the U.S. Navy to bridge spans and road beds, has helped in making the local diving great. The following is just a sample of some of our dive sites with depths to allow you to decide on which one you or your group want to dive.

  • SS TARPON ....Cargo Ship.....95' (Natural Sinking) Historical Preserve

  • SIMPSON ....Tug Boat......25'

  • CHICKASAW ....Tug Boat.....60'

  • USS STRENGTH ....Navy Mine Sweeper.....72'

  • BRIDGE SPANS ....18 Sites.....40'-110' (Lots of Life)

  • USS CHIPPEWA ....Navy Tug.....95' (Fully Intact)

  • TWIN BARGES ....Sea Going Barges.....65'-75'

  • PEPPERTREE .....Limestone Reef.....70'-80'

  • FOUNTAINBLUE ....Limestone Reef.....75'

  • GREY GHOST ....Tug Boat.....110'(Excellent Dive)

  • QUONSET HUT .... Navy Project.....90'(Shells - Spearfishing)

  • WARSAW HOLE .... Limestone Reef.....85' (Spearfishing)

The above listed sites are just a few of the many available for diving. All have great shell collectin, photography, and in some cases spearfishing, if you desire. Charter rates vary for these sites due to distance and time involved in getting to them.

Below are listed locations for many of the wrecks and reef dive sites for the area. Distance is measured in miles from the pass at St. Andrew State Park.
