Night Diver
Come to the Dark Side!
The PADI Night Diver Course with AQUASUB SCUBA DIVING CENTRE
The PADI Night Diver course is designed to provide divers with the knowledge and skills necessary to safely plan and execute night dives. The course covers topics such as the unique challenges and rewards of night diving, as well as the special equipment and techniques required for night diving.
During the course, you will learn about the different types of dive lights and how to properly use them, as well as how to navigate and communicate effectively in low-light conditions. You will also learn about the different nocturnal creatures that you may encounter during night dives, and how to observe them without disturbing their natural behavior.
To enroll in the PADI Night Diver course, you must have a minimum of the PADI Open Water Diver certification or equivalent, and be at least 12 years old. The course typically includes both classroom and practical sessions, and culminates in several open water night dives where you will apply the knowledge and skills you have learned.
The PADI Night Diver course is an exciting opportunity for divers who want to expand their diving knowledge and skills, and experience the unique sights and sounds of the underwater world at night. However, it is important to remember that night diving requires additional knowledge, skills, and preparation to be done safely, and should only be attempted by divers who are properly trained and prepared.
The underwater world changes as day creatures retire & nocturnal organisms emerge. If you've wondered what happens underwater after the sun goes down, enroll in the PADI Night Diver Specialty course.

Many shipwrecks are often found in deeper water. That’s why the PADI Deep Diver course is a natural companion to the PADI Wreck Diver course. Sometimes you can take these two specialties concurrently.
Other training to consider is the PADI Enriched Air Diver course on your way to PADI Master Scuba Diver.
