Overview
The Discover Scuba Diving program in Panama City Beach provides an opportunity for individuals to experience scuba diving without committing to a full certification course. Participants begin by completing an online academic component and a medical questionnaire prior to the dive. The practical session takes place at St. Andrews State Park, where divers can explore the sheltered waters near the rock jetties. Marine life commonly observed includes rays, mullet, groupers, sheepshead, flounder, urchins, anemones, spadefish, redfish, crabs, and snails.
