PADI Night Diver Course

Night Diver Class

$225.00 – $275.00

The thought of dipping below the surface at night seems mysterious, yet so alluring. Although you’ve been scuba diving at a site many times before, at night you drop into a whole new world and watch it come to life under the glow of your dive light. The scene changes as day creatures retire and nocturnal organisms emerge. If you’ve wondered what happens underwater after the sun goes down, sign up for the PADI Night Diver or SSI Night Diving and Limited Visibility Specialty course.

Night diving requires different skills from diving during the day. This specialty is the best way to learn about night diving and practice the techniques you will need to become a safe and confident night diver. In this program, you will be provided with all the knowledge and skills you need to safely and comfortably dive at night or in limited visibility conditions. With a combination of online learning and open water training dives, you will learn how to enter and exit the water, use specialized equipment, and how to communicate with your buddy easily at night or in limited visibility. Upon completion, you will be ready to go night diving with confidence.

(Junior) Open Water Divers or higher, who are at least 12 years old, can enroll in the Night Diver specialty course

Sidemount Rec Diver Class
Sidemount Rec Diver Class
Having scuba tanks on your back isn’t a requirement for exploring the underwater world. Many scuba divers have discovered the joy of mounting cylinders on their sides. Sidemount diving gives you flexibility and streamlining options. Plus, you don’t have to walk with heavy cylinders on your back – just enter the water, clip them on and go. The sidemount configuration is most commonly used by technical divers, either to streamline their equipment in overhead environments or to carry extra cylinders for long decompression stops. If you want to expand your underwater horizons beyond the recreational limits, the Sidemount Diver course serves as an introduction to the skills and equipment used in tec diving. However, there is no reason why recreational divers can’t also dive sidemount — in fact, many recreational divers simply prefer sidemount because it improves their comfort and maneuverability in the water. Academics: Along with learning about the many benefits of diving with a sidemount configuration, during one confined water and three open water scuba dives you will learn how to:
  • Properly assemble and configure sidemount scuba diving equipment,
  • Trim your weight system and sidemount gear to be perfectly balanced in the water,
  • Manage gas by switching second stages as planned, if wearing two cylinders,
  • Perform air consumption rate swims to gather information for later calculation,
  • Manage and switch your air supply during simulated emergency situations,
  • Swim without a mask,
  • Practice deploying a DSMB from depth,
  • Practice frog kicks, reverse frog kick, helicopter turns,
  • Optimize your trim and buoyancy,
  • Respond correctly to potential problems when sidemount diving.
After purchasing this course, don't forget to come by to pick up your course materials before class! There are knowledge reviews to complete before class, and as a class participant you have a 10% gear discount to use towards the purchase of your sidemount BCD, regulators, redundant dive lights, finger spool / DSMB, wrist slate and line cutter / knife (and any other gear that your heart desires). You can pick the certifying agency of your choice: PADI or SSI.

Drysuit Diver Class
Drysuit Diver Class
Course fee does not include drysuit rental Description: Want to stay warm? Want to extend your scuba diving season? Then dive dry. A dry suit seals you off from the water and keeps you comfortable, even in surprisingly cold water. There is incredible diving in the world’s cooler regions and in some areas, conditions are even better in colder months. Becoming a dry suit diver allows you to expand your boundaries and dive more places, more often. Prerequisite: If you are at least 10 years old and certified as a (Junior) Open Water Diver or higher, you can enroll in the Dry Suit Diver course. Academics: The first thing you will discover is which dry suit style and accompanying undergarments are right for you and the diving you will do. Then you will learn how to take care of your dry suit. During two dives, in addition to a confined water dive, you will practice:
  • Putting on and taking off your dry suit with minimal assistance,
  • Mastering buoyancy control using your dry suit,
  • Dive safety procedures when using a dry suit.
You may be able to get college credit for the Dry Suit Diver course – ask your instructor about earning credit. Equipment: Clearly a dry suit is necessary along with your basic scuba equipment. Your instructor or dive center staff will explain other gear or equipment options you may need to dive comfortably with your dry suit. For example, because you’re more buoyant in a dry suit than in a wetsuit, you may want a different weight system setup. You can pick the certifying agency of your choice: PADI or SSI.
