The night dive at Hikkaduwa offers a magical experience where the reef takes on a whole new persona in the dark. The water is calm, and visibility is still clear, with up to 10-15 meters. The bioluminescence is a highlight, as plankton and some marine animals light up the water with a soft glow. This is a unique opportunity to witness the secret world of aquatic life after dark.
Guided by our experienced instructors, you'll get a firsthand look at the behavior of nocturnal marine creatures. The dive will be conducted at a slow, controlled pace, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience.
