On my way to Pensacola and looking to dive

[njdiver09]

I will be traveling to Pensacola next week and am interested in doing as much diving as possible.
I am having difficulty finding a boat that will be running during the week. They all seem to need a min of 4 divers to run.
If you are looking to dive or know of any boats that are going out any time next week from Tue the 14 to Fri the 18 let me know.
Even shore dives locations would be a big help.
Thanks​

there are definitely shore dives you can do, and much cheaper too! I have been to St Andrews here in Pc many times

You need to dive the jetties at slack tide preferably high tide. For next week you are looking at 8am-ish times.

I know Captain Douglas runs trips during the week, but it's early in the season, so he may not have the volume he needs yet: Charter Boat H2O Below - Dive The USS Oriskany in Pensacola, Florida You may want to call Captain Pat in Panama City and see if he has any trips during the week: Panama City Dive Charters - Scuba charters & classes or Dive Locker: Dive Locker - Panama City Beach Florida Dive Store

We will be spearing/diving starting the 16th and running until the 21st. We are staying on Ono Island ( just west of AL/FL line) which is near Perdido Pass. We have a 21 foot boat and are looking for a couple extra divers to share gas. Send a PM for more details.

I will be diving /beach sitting at St. Andrews on Sunday May 27 and Monday May 28. High tide about 2:00 PM looks like great shore diving. If you need a dive buddy me know. My wife and I set up on the beach and I hump my gear down to dive around the south point and let the tide pull me in to the kiddie pool. Good vis and 76 degree waters should be sweet.
