The PADI Night Diver pathway

The PADI Night Diver specialty counts toward the Master Scuba Diver rating, and one night dive can credit toward the Advanced Open Water course when completed first. Torches and signalling equipment are typically provided by the dive centre.

Where you'll dive in Djibouti

Night dives are run at sheltered reef sites in the Gulf of Tadjoura that are dived by day first, so the layout is familiar; calm conditions and warm 24-30°C water through the October-to-February peak make for comfortable after-dark diving.
