I've just returned from a week in Panama City where I went on three dive trips with Panama City Dive Charters. My experience was fantastic. I'm a freedive spearfisher and Dave (boat captain) and Kyle (dive master) went out of their way to make my dives enjoyable. Both are extremely competent and exceptionally nice. Thanks, guys!

I just finished my dive certification. It was a perfect experience! Reid Coley, my instructor, was very knowledgeable, skilled in diving and instructing, and professional. He took the time to slowly, patiently, and fully teach any members of the class that were uncomfortable or apprehensive about the the required skills. The dive shop was clean (and fully stocked with the... More

We dove there on may 17th and 18th. Great charter company and we loved the captain, Dave. Lost my weight pouch and they retrieved it for me. I was very impressed by this charter company and would not hesitate to recommend them to you.

We took their charter to the Black Bart on Sunday. They were a very professional crew on a well equipped boat. Captain Matt was patient and worked with everyone to ensure a stress-free dive. Looking forward to another trip in the near future. Thanks!

When me and my friends knew we were going to panama city for spring break the first thing we started figuring out was where to dive. My biggest concern was finding a dive shop, getting there, and being surrounded by unfriendly arrogant divers. We knew that was not the case within the first five minutes at Panama City Dive Charters.... More

Myself and my employees took First Aid, CPR, and AED training. Reid Coley was the instructor and did an excellent job teaching this course. He was very knowledgeable and was able to answer all of our questions. I recommend this class and all services provided at this dive shop!

I was impressed with the way I was treated at Panama City Dive Charters! Everyone was very friendly and helpful.

Thanks to him I feel confident in my ability to respond in an emergency situation. I was... More

When I choose this place for my open water certification, it was basically a shot in the dark. Lucky choice on my part. Everyone at the shop is great--thanks Reid for the training. Dave, captain of the Steel Slinger, is a great captain and a great guy. Excellent for spear-fishing (as the boat name would imply). The shop has all... More
