Night Diver - Course Dates & Times

Perhaps the most exciting and mysterious experience we have as divers is the night dive. In fact, night dives are frequently far more interesting and exciting because of the vast number of creatures that we never see during daylight hours.

They are so well hidden by day that we never notice they are even there. But at night, they come out to feed, mate and go about their nocturnal business, usually without any notice of divers whatever. During the Night Diver Specialty course, you will have several opportunities to participate in different night diving environments and will be amazed at the different scenes you will observe that in the daylight seem fairly empty of marine life and at night will be overflowing with all sorts of new and strange creatures that you did not know were even in these waters.

In the Advanced Open Water Course, only an overview of Night Diving was presented. This course is designed to provide a diver with thorough training in all aspects of Night Diving. Emphasis is placed on the following areas: planning, preparation, equipment needed for night diving, procedures, problems, hazards, navigation and buddy system techniques.
