Over a decade ago, we started diving and fell in love with it. After our first dive off the regulator in the pool, it was clear that this was going be a passion. Before we went to the Sea of Cortez to do our check-dive, all of our gear was purchased. We knew that we wanted to return to Mexico for another dive trip after our check-in weekend. Our first year of diving in panama saw us log over 100 dives. We were so passionate about diving that we decided to share it with others.
Scuba diving training should not be limited to learning how to handle any eventualities. Although this is an important part of training, we ensure that you can do it when you're done. However, you should also be able to do it in mid-water and not at the bottom with your knees. This applies to all courses we offer, including Open Water and Technical. You will learn how to scuba dive and not how to survive underwater. It is not always possible to dive in an area that allows you to get down to the bottom if an issue occurs. It is important to be able and willing to tackle any issue in the water. That's what we teach.
We offer everything you need to learn, from basic diving skills to advanced dives and emergency rescue courses. Contact Sidemount Technical Dive Panama City Beach today!

Our teaching philosophy has always been simple. We believe in mentors first and instructors second. We don't just teach diving; we go out and do the diving. We are available to answer any questions you may have and provide assistance. We might not know all the answers but we will help you find someone. We want to make your diving more enjoyable and better. Be sure to verify that the instructor has not been paid for a rating and given the rating. Be sure to check that the instructor has experience in teaching the sport.
The new program saves retailers and instructor money, as there is no need to invest in multiple sets of materials to teach what are, essentially, the same course, just to different audiences.
