Description
Thursday is special because it is the only day of the week we run our two tank "Sunset/Night dive" charter. We have discovered that dusk is a unique time of change for the reef animals. Some perform mating rituals, others display feeding activity and some are easy to approach as they become sleepy. The night dive shows a different view of the reef with bright colors and a plethora of unique animals that we usually never see during daylight. Let us show you "night life" as you've never seen it before.
Requirements
Divers must:
- Be an Openwater Certified Diver (minimum of 4 certification dives)
- Cannot be the first dive after certification, we also suggest it is not the first dive of your Maui visit
- Be comfortable with rough trade wind ocean conditions
