Night Dive Safety & Essentials
Before the reef lights up under your dive torch, every night dive begins with a thorough safety briefing. Instructors review dive plans, currents, and tide conditions while checking your lighting and equipment. With these preparations, you’ll confidently descend into Sumbawa’s reefs after sunset. Typical dives last 45–65 minutes, giving you plenty of time to navigate the reef safely while discovering nocturnal marine life like sleeping parrotfish, crabs, and octopus.
Your Night Dive Adventure
As the sun disappears, the underwater world transforms. Guided by Mocean’s experienced instructors, you’ll glide along coral walls illuminated by dive lights, revealing hidden reef activity and glowing bioluminescence when in season. Night diving brings a unique rhythm and perspective to Sumbawa’s waters, letting divers see behaviors and creatures not visible during the day. Each dive lasts around 45–65 minutes, offering both excitement and a calm, immersive experience under the stars.
