PADI Scuba diving courses in the warm Caribbean waters of the Dominican Republic

Night diver

Diving at night is a challenge, the dive sites you were familiar with in the day change dramatically. Fish and invertebrates that were hiding in the light come out to feed or hunt. It is a new adventure to explore these areas at night.

To enrol in this specialty, you’ll need to be at least PADI Open Water Diver (PADI Junior Open Water Diver or equivalent) and 12 years or older.

During your program you’ll go on three open water dives. You'll learn to prepare night dive activities and develop your knowledge and techniques for night diving.

Some of the topics covered in PADI Night Diver course are:

  • Planning, organization, procedures, techniques, problems and hazards of night diving.
  • Proper procedures for buoyancy control, navigation and communication.
    Use of dive lights and buddy-system techniques.
  • Disorientation and emergency procedures.
  • Orientation to nocturnal aquatic life.

The elective Night Dive conducted during the PADI Adventures In Diving program may count toward this specialty at the discretion of the instructor.

The course includes;
1 classroom session
3 night dives
PADI courses offer the most comprehensive and modern diver training available in the world today.
