(Waiting to here back from them more info will follow once we get it) We are going to work with Tanks-A-Lot Dive Charters and their partner dive shops to get a scheduled club trip out to the Gulf of Mexico Clearwater FL area to dive the Circle of Hero's and their choice of a wreck and reef dive. We are currently looking to see if they offer group rates. If they do not it is $125 per person for a 2 tank dive.
