As the sun sets, you don your dive gear,
slip on your mask and bite down on your regulator. A deep breath and you
step off the boat – into the underwater night. Although you’ve seen this
reef many times before, this time you drop into a whole new world and watch
it come to life under the glow of your dive light.
The adventure, thrill and excitement of
night diving can be yours when you complete your PADI Night Diver Specialty
course. You learn about night dive planning, equipment and navigation. You
practice these on three night dives, plus introduce yourself to the whole
new cast of critters that comes out after the sun goes down.

develop techniques for safe night diving, proper buoyancy control, navigating and
