Diver's Den

This is the best dive shop i have encountered. The boat is excellent. The crew is very helpful, and accomodating.
I had not dived with them before, but I surely will in the future

The absolute best experience! My husband and I are fairly new to diving and have never had a bad experience with this shop! They are all super helpful and answer any questions about the local dive spots! I highly recommend renting gear from them too!

Just finished open water certification with Nicole. Extremely knowledgeable and professional, very impressed! I am extremely satisfied with both the training and the level of professionalism from all the staff at the Divers Den. I highly recommend them to anyone interested in learning how to Dive.

Everyone on the crew was fantastic. Made what would have been a bad vis dive a wonderful experience. If you’re looking to dive Panama City, definitely go with Divers Den! They have Capri sun!

Great experience! You don’t have to load the gas tanks to your car and the take them to the dock, because they have already loaded the tanks on the boat in advance. The captain is willing to drive farther and take us to the dive sites we haven't been to! Thank them for the warm and professional service.

We did the Discover Scuba Diving (DSD) at Diver's Den, and it was a great experience! I would recommend it. Emma and Vanessa were laid back and friendly. The weather wasn't the most cooperative early in the week when we had originally planned to go, but Emma helped us reschedule a time that worked out great. She really went above and beyond.

Divers den is a great little dive shop. The boats Are a little smaller than the other dive shop around the corner but that can be an Advantage if you don’t want to go with a large group. So I can highly recommend this dive shop and you’ll have a good time.

I appreciate the helpfulness of the staff in getting our family fitted for wet suit rentals. We have 3 young children and they were really helpful communicating with them to ensure they were comfortable. I ended up having an issue with one of the suits and was told they would refund me for that suit. Nothing was refunded so I ended up calling them and they took care of it no problem. Otherwise I would have said 5 stars.

Outstanding dive masters, boat captains, deck hands, dive shop, and diving conditions. Safety is a major priority along with customer service. JD is an excellent captain, Brian and Carlos are stellar master divers who excel at their craft. Kim couldn't be more polite when booking and checking in early morning divers. I highly recommend this diving establishment. Loads of ice cold water on board the boat & snacks too. I'd give it 10 stars if I could!

(This trip was early 2017)
The products aren't bad but I was here for the PADI certification. (The diver training is a separate institution from the shop but it operates inside of Diver's Den.)
-Cheaper classes and significant military discounts
-High quality training for beginners
-Amanda Wendt is a helpful instructor!
-The PADI cert can be completed over the weekend at Saint Andrews State Park

Booked these guys at the last minute because the other shop I had previously used was acting strangely over the phone... boy was I glad we booked with Divers Den. We had a great experience and I wouldn’t change a thing about the excursion. They put us in several great dives; Carlos was our dive master and the captain was great. The boat was perfect for diving and I can’t wait to get back for another trip. If your diving around PCB, book these guys. They have a great store as well.

Diver's Den is the place to get certified in all PADI SCUBA certifications. Great knowledgeable and friendly instructors. They also have an awesome dive charter with a U.S. Coast Guard Certified Captain (JD) that takes you to great wreck site like the Black Bart (awesome sunk boat), Span 1, 2, 12, and 14, the Red Sea , Hovercraft and Strength. I dropped my gopro on the 2nd dive and went back down and found it for me after the dive. The can also can take care of all your dive equipment needs. These guys are Pros!!!!!

This is an unsafe dive center. The dive master sent my son down 70 feet without a buddy. Carlos got in and went down to take a picture of a shark and then got back in the boat and told him to go. There was no one from the dive center in the water, just another couple buddied up. I have dove many times all over and have never heard of anything so unprofessional. He and the boat captain were also very rude. I would pick another dive center in pcb if you value safety.

Don't go anywhere else to dive!! Divers Den......very knowledgeable and lots of fun! Drove from Cape San Blas!!! Will definitely be back!!!

I had a month to get in an advanced open water course and a nitrox certification and Chase made everything happen. I needed to do it in one weekend since I live two hours away, and he was incredibly accommodating and made sure everything was organized and ready to go the weekend I showed up. Chase was fantastic as an instructor and made sure I was comfortable with all the skills I needed to learn. I really appreciated him going above and beyond so that I could have a great dive trip in the Keys a couple weeks later.

The other people in the shop were also great to interact with!

Was a fine 2 tank inshore dive.
Rates were a bit higher than Panama City Diving.
My Nitrox tanks were labelled at 30.1% & 29.4% which is less than ideal when you assume you're paying for 32%.
The full compliment of 10 divers + Captain + DM made for VERY cramped conditions on the boat, & TBH my buddies both commented on how uptight the Capt was about managing his boat.
Won't be my first choice for service when I come back but will dive with them again if the other boats are full.

This past Friday (aug18) was my second open water dive. The Crew made me and partners feel comfortable. The dives where great! Dive master (Carlos) was very knowledgeable and helped me figure out something's I didn't know about my computer. The captain (JD) was hilarious. The over all dive was wonderful and we will definitely be returning next year.

1) clean dive shop
2) good quality rental equipment with a very clean tank fill room. Checked reg set before renting them.
3) Dive Master Carlos is very knowledgeable and checked us over and gave a great dive plan.

My only issue is when trip is cancelled due to weather and sea conditions (no complaint there) is there was no refund from a two tank trip back to a one tank trip, they offered half off your next dive which is great if you are in town long enough. But on the plus side they did not require a deposit to reserve a dive which was great cause you know how vacation plans change.

Brian is very patient and informative, enjoy the experience Buy or rent I picked up New snorkeling gear and had a great time

I LOVE THIS PLACE. I was certified by them MANY MOONS AGO. I was on holiday and wanted to go diving.

I scheduled my dive and showed up at the shop. Shop is WELL SUPPLIED and extremely helpful. Paid and went to the boat.

The boat that day was almost FULL. It made for a great day of diving. The took us to 2 sights, one being VOODOO, 2 planes at about 75 feet and one of the old bridge spans from the OLD BAY BRIDGE.

That day was great visibility and great weather as well as CALM SEAS. The dive master ensured we were all ready and double checked prior to entry.

The BOAT supplied TANKS and

Great customer service! My family and I use this shop a good bit when down in Florida. The guys there are always very helpful. You can purchase and rent diving equipment here. There carry mainly Aqua Lung but have an assortment of brands. Renting equipment is $18 for BC, $8 tank, and $18 reg this is for 24 hours. They have an array of masks, snorkels, wetsuits, and BC's to chose from.

This weekend we rented some equipment from diver's den. The bad weather caused us to have a short dive. The guys were very humble and told us we could use it for a few more hours. Since we didn't

Great place for rentals and very reasonably priced too! Everyone was super nice and helpful with letting us know the local dive laws, along with updating us on tides and what to expect at the jetties. They are close to St. Andrews park and they also can take you out a boat trip, which we did not have time for this time. Don't forget your dive cards, they are a legit dive shop and will check to make sure you are certified or they will help you get certified. We will be going back next year when we are at the beach again.
