DIVE CHARTERS
The Steel Slinger is based out of Treasure Island Marina. This boat is a custom made 36′ Newton dive boat. She is USCG inspected for 30 regular passengers or 20 divers…. but we limit dive trips to just 14 scuba divers to insure comfort and space for everyone. The dive charters head to local shipwrecks and metal bridge spans that aggregate massive schools of our scaly friends.
SPEARFISHING
Spearfishing is essentially bow hunting underwater. It is neither easy to master or cheap to get into….. and its more addictive than crack. If you want to get clean, ethical non-industrial protein that doesn’t have any hormones, pesticides, or antibiotics and don’t mind wearing life support equipment to “go shopping” this might be for you.

Take It to The Next Level
If you have ever been snorkeling and want to take it to the next level, our scuba diving classes and training are for you. Our discover Scuba class is perfect for the first timer down on vacation with only so much time to squeeze in everything they want to do. If you want to BE a diver though, the next level (Scuba Certification) earns you a card that is recognized in all dive shops the world over. These dive classes take three days of in-water training as well as academic work to complete. So we strongly recommend planning your class in advance if you want to embark on this journey.
For already certified divers we offer guided dives from shore as well as boat dives to local shipwrecks for divers ready to do to the “deep end” of the pool. We also offer training for certified divers wanting to pick up additional recreation training classes, specialty classes based on unique local diving opportunities and even technical dive training.
If you want to ditch all the heavy and expensive dive gear that goes with scuba and learn to unlock the hidden potential we all posses as aquatic apes, then Freediving may be exactly what you are looking for. All of our classes are arranged via reservations and can fill up due to limited space and required teacher to student ratios. Call us today to begin your Panama City SCUBA, snorkeling, freediving or spearfishing adventure!
