PADI Night Diver
Courses at Divers Unlimited
Does your diving day end when the Sun goes down? Are you tired
with the same old dive sites and feel as if you need some more excitement?
Do you want to experience the adventure and excitement of a night
dive but lack the confidence and knowledge to be able to do it safely?
If your answer to any of these three questions is yes, then what
you need is to take the PADI Night Diver Specialty Course!
The PADI Night Diver Specialty Course will familiarise you with
the skills, knowledge, planning, organization, procedures, techniques,
problems, hazards, and enjoyment of night diving. The course is
designed to serve as a supervised introduction to the fascinating
world of night diving and includes open water night dives as part
of the course. You will also learn about the specialised equipment
requirements and specialised techniques used exclusively when night
diving, to make your night dives as enjoyable and as safe as possibly.
Familiar dives sites will become new and exciting places to explore
under the cover of darkness. You will see many strange and mysterious
creatures that only come out at night, and some that act completely
differently than they usually do during the daylight hours.
Don't let your diving stop when the Sun goes down!
