Everything you need to plan a unique vacation in the Florida Panhandle
 

Scuba Diving in the Florida Panhandle
What you need to know before you go

The Florida Panhandle is a great place for scuba diving, thanks to the warm Gulf waters that make the area an excellent home and breeding ground for all types of sea life. Sea turtles, giant manta rays, puffer fish, sand dollars, blue marlin and horseshoe crab are just a few of the species you'll find while diving in these emerald green waters.

Natural reefs exists a few miles offshore and the Florida Panhandle has an abundance of wrecks and artificial reefs created by sinking old ships, planes and airplane parts discarded from the military bases in the area - which are teeming with sea life and create excellent diving destinations.

Although you'll find dive shops and outfitters all along the Panhandle coast, you'll find a greater concentration of them in the major towns of Pensacola, Destin and Panama City.
