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.

Our belief is that scuba diving training should go beyond just knowing what to do if something goes wrong. This is a vital part of the training. We make sure that you have the ability to perform all the tasks in the water, and not just on your bottom. This is true for all our courses, Open Water to Technical. We teach you how and when to dive. You won't always be able to reach your knees if there is a problem. Any issues that arise in mid-water must be addressed. This is how we train you.
