And welcome to SB - the biggest, the best, the fastest growing, and
the friendliest! If you'll simply click ScubaBoard.com above, you'll be taken to our long list of forums, a wealth of information and resources. My favorite is at the bottom: Singles Dive Club. If you'll tool down to the Central America forum, or use our Search feautre, perhaps you can find more information on Panama.
It would help in future diving discussions if you'd complete your Profile with location - and seperately - your Dive Info. You can use the Quick Links above to reach those easily. Sizing a photo for your profile or Avatar can be a challenge; I'm a fumbling amateur, but I get the job done, if you'd like any help?

Hi Darrellk
The diving in Bocas is very similar to other diving in the wester Caribbean but to be perfectly honest the marine life is just not that great.
Another place you may want to try in Panama is the small village of Pedasi on the Pacific side. This is a very Tranquillo area of Panama where you will not be on crowded boats at dive sites that are overrun with tourist. Usaully no more than 4 divers on a boat.
A small dive shop in the village of Pedasi, Buzos de Azuero can cater to your needs. They also specialize in Deep Sea Fishing and speak english.

Most dive trips go to Isla Iguana which is about 7 km from the coast. They have 17 species of coral and lots of fish. They also offer wreck diving at Punto Malo which is further away.
Happy Diving
