Fun Of Night Diving

Since I did my first night dives on my AOWD course, it’s love at first sight (or experience). The diving experience makes me extremely calm and seeing a whole new world as many underwater creatures and plant life different from those I saw during the day. I can only see where my torch light shine, give me the excitements of spooky and wilderness.

During the night dives you will also see night predators out hunting. Also all the normally reef fish you will see out during the day, will be asleep. They will be tucked into any rock or over hang that they can find, in order to stop the night predators find and eating them.

Night dives can be great fun, but they're not without risks. Divers need to be fully aware of the additional risks associated with dangerous creatures, for example, sea snake and lion fish are much more active at night.

Ensure the following conditions are met:

-Good weather

-Good surface visibility, don't dive in high surge or heavy rain

-All divers to have main and backup torch

-Exit points are lit with coloured lights (to distinguish from other lights)

Night diving is strictly for certified Advanced Open Water Diver only. Let’s go for a night party underwater next time.
