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 this specialty can be yours when you complete your this 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.

 

Go night diving and see the underwater world in a whole new light – a dive light.
