| Pensacola Dive Company Call now (850) 4-DIVING |
Pensacola is often called "the last affordable
paradise." Our white sandy beaches, great
year round weather, and our seafood have
placed this small area of the Florida
panhandle on a very large page of the
national tourism map. Pensacola has always
been a great place for scuba diving and
honeymooners and now we are the home of
the Former USS CV-34 Oriskany aircraft
carrier, the world's largest artificial reef.
Sunk on May 17th 2006, nearly 20 miles off
shore, underwater visibility is typically at
least 75 feet. Often visibility is near 200 feet
during the summer. The top of the Oriskany
or the island starts around 65 feet and the
flight deck lays at the bottom of the
recreational dive limit at 137 feet.
Underwater wedding ceremonies are
becoming more and more popular and are
much less of a headache for the bride and
groom to plan. Most underwater wedding
ceremonies are just that, purely ceremonial
and not legally binding. Our underwater
ceremonies are legal and binding performed
under the laws of the State of Florida. Capt
Ron will marry you in the Pensacola
underwater location of your choice.
Whether it's the Oriskany 20 miles offshore
at 70' or the Massachusetts one mile
offshore at 20', your underwater wedding
ceremony will be a legal and binding
marriage contract.
