NIGHT DIVING

The night time scuba dive starts at 15 to 25 feet/5-8mt on the sandy bottom and then goes to a coral wall which slopes down gradually to about 80 feet/24mt. We usually donā€™t go deeper than 40 feet/12mt so as to be able to spend more time exploring. At night octopus, lobsters, squid and nudibranchs come out of hiding and roam the reef looking for prey. The reef itself changes at night as coral polyps open for feeding. Some of the fish you see are the same ones as in the day (do they ever sleep?) and some of the fish you see will be sleeping such as parrot fish (please do not wake them up!).

This dive counts as an adventure dive and can be used as a credit towards theĀ PADI Adventures in DivingĀ orĀ PADI Advanced Open Water.

Time:Ā 4:00 pm ā€“ 8:00/8:30 pm
Includes: US$40.00 Marine Park fees, Breakfast, Lunch, Snacks & Beverages
