For those that are coming to Vortex Springs for Vortoberfest, I will be diving off Panama City Oct. 8th. For anyone interested in joining me, you can reserve your spot with Panama City Dive Charters. Panama City Dive Charters Trip Calendar and Reservations We have to check in at the dive center no later than 8am Saturday the 8th for an 9am departure. If you have any questions, please email me at lives4sharks@yahoo.com or contact the dive center. I am listed as Scubaboard or Carolyn Geis. Dpending on how many divers, we will probably be inhore rather than offshore for dives. But if we have more numbers, we can have more power to decide where we want to go.

Happy diving!

Hi Carolyn, Could be the weather is not in your favor for a boat dive on Sat.

If you interested in diving the St Andys Jetty on Sat.? There is minimal change in tides or minimal currents. I would hook up with the SBers and give that dive a try.
