Mysterious and yet so alluring - Go for the PADI® Night Diver Specialty Program!
3 days | 3 Open Water Dives
A whole new underwater world after sunset!
As a scuba diver, you miss half of the ocean's life if you only dive during the day. Why limit your diving to daylight hours when you can experience the wonder of what happens underwater once the sun goes down?
Scuba diving at night is one of the most exciting experiences you can have underwater!
Diving at night entails more than just grabbing a torchlight and going. Adequate planning, preparation, equipment, and communication skills are needed.
The PADI Night Diver Specialty course can provide these skills and give you the assurance to navigate and the knowledge to recognize marine life at night.
Let's get your PADI® Night Diver Specialty Certification!
Stop wondering what happens underwater after the sun goes down and drop into a whole new world and discover it through the glow of your dive light!
During the Night Diver Course, you will learn:
- Planning, organization, procedures, techniques, problems and hazards of night diving
- Proper methods for buoyancy control, navigation, and communication
- Use of dive lights and buddy-system techniques
- Disorientation and emergency procedures
- Identifying how plants and animals vary or modify behavior at night

IMPORTANT! -Flying after Diving
When planning your diving trip and your journey toward your destinations, always remember that you must not fly directly after scuba diving. It accentuates the risk of having decompression sickness.
The PADI guidelines are to NOT FLY during a 12 hours interval after a single dive and 18 hours after multiple dives. As often when it comes to scuba diving, take a conservative approach to safety, and whenever possible, avoid flying the next 24 hours after a dive.
If you intend to do multiple dives on different days during your trip, consider buying your own dive computer, as it will calculate the optimal time to fly based on your diving history.
Even more than other outdoor sports, diving is weather- and sea-dependent. Be aware that some sites might be inaccessible on certain days and that diving trips might be canceled due to dangerous conditions.
Luckily, Thailand has a fantastic climate almost all year round and this happens very rarely.
