About
What to expect: We're diving at sunset and after dark. Night dives are a great way to see the wrecks and reefs in a way that you have never seen before. While dive site names may be familiar, you will not recognize the reef.
Depending on the group, we dive on wrecks or reefs. We often find crustaceans, sharks, and other nocturnal animals cruising the reefs that we never see during the day.
Private Guides Available
Please note: Night diving adds a level of complexity. Divers should have a minimum of 25 dives or an advanced certification
What to bring: Swimsuit, towel, and warm clothes for after the dive. We can provide all the diving gear and equipment including lights, or bring your own and save some money
