If you want diving with a twist, or if you are looking for serious fun and adventure then our PADI Night Diver Specialty is for you.
Diving in the dark is nothing like diving during daylight hours and adds a certain spice and excitement. Your favourite dive site can seem like another world when you explore it in the dark.
