Whether it's day or night, limited visibility can be an adventure. Diving at night you can discover a different side of this world and you can experience it from a completely different view and discover the mysteries held underwater when the sun goes down.

 

Night diving is a whole new way to experience the underwater world. Just because the visibility is limited doesn't mean the opportunities have to be.

 

This dive explores planning and conducting night and limited visibility dives for fun, adventure, and exploration.

Improving your buoyancy control skills is essential to every diver that is wanting to improve diving skills and maximise enjoyment while at the same time performing active environmental protection.
