Night Diving

Night Diving

Experience a completely different underwater world once the sun goes down. Learn about the exciting specialty of night diving. It's completly different underwater at night. The first time you descend into the darkness you'll realize that it's almost a completely different world at night. Even though it sounds a little scary, you'll find that there's nothing to worry about and that night diving is usually much more relaxing that diving during the day.

With underwater lights, you will see a sompletly different reef and population of fish on a night dive. The reef comes alive with a whole different cast of characters at night. Most of the fish you see during the day hide away to sleep at night and many that can't be found during the day can be seen all over the reef. Night dives are the best time to see crabs, lobsters, and shrimp going about their business. Octopi come out and swim freely alongside hunting sharks and barracuda creating an amazing show.

One of the most spectacular parts of night diving is watching the coral feeding. Coral blooms after dark, absorbing nutrients from the water around it and looks truly beautiful. Of course, an incredible occurrence that can only be seen at night with all lights turned off is bioluminescence, amazing organisms that glow in the dark!
