Hi everyone, we are heading for Panama City beach in April. We have completed our classes, and need to do our certifications - and would like to get them done there. We have a little bit of info on the area, and have talked to one dive center there. The local dive shop recommended finding a 5 star (PADI) shop for certification, but there is only one in the area (Diver's Den).

Does anyone have any suggestions as to the best facility there to use? Also, the local folks said we need to tell them what kind of dives we want to do(gulf or something else). Any recommendations for that? Thanks for your help, we're looking forward to getting back in the water, as it's been a couple of weeks since we finished our classes.
 
Warhammer (one of our other moderators, though he's been in major lurk mode lately) is very familiar with PCB.

Be sure to send him a private message with your questions.
 
Thanks for the recommendation on the PCB expert. May send him a message. Sorry for the double post (kindof) Stone, but after becoming more familiar with this site, thought it may be more appropriate to post the location specific question here. Also was interested in any experience anyone may have had with Diver's Den. As we're new to this, we want to make sure our OW certification goes well. I've read and heard a few horror stories already.

Anyway, thanks for the additional info.
