I am planning a trip down to Panama City Beach next week. Can anyone let me know the conditions? Are there any problems with oil?


Thanks

Currently, I am about an hour down from P.C. Bch. Located in Destin. It is gorgeous here. You should not be dissapointed.


Have a great trip.

I’ll second that. You should have no problems diving.

no ideas for you on the charter, but please let us know how the trip goes and your opinion on any companies you go with. PC is beautiful and there isnt an oil issue at all. Enjoy your trip and stay down here!

Check out PADI’s October Issue of Sport Diver. The feature article discusses current conditions in the Gulf and there are lots of good pictures.

It was great both days. Viz was 20-30’ and temp was great. A little choppy on the ride out, but it was worth it. Hats off to the Dive Locker, great team.
