SPECIALTY DIVER SERIES

Night Diver


Even your local dive site offers a whole new adventure by moonlight! To take advantage of this extraordinary specialty, you'll need to be at least PADI Open Water Diver (PADI Junior Open Water Diver or equivalent) and 12 or older.
During your PADI Night Diver 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 Manual 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 from the Adventures In Diving program may count toward the certification requirements for this specialty at the instructor's discretion.
