Night Dives & Bioluminiscence


At night everything changes, marine life starts a new life when the sun sets.

Night diving bioluminescence is a phenomenon you experience on a night dive when you switch off your dive torch. Wave your arms in the underwater darkness to see tiny specs of bioluminescence, which is tiny plankton lighting up blue. Scientists are unsure why so many creatures are bioluminescent.

Bioluminescent organisms produce the light by an energy release. This energy release is as a result of a chemical reaction, which occurs inside the organism.If you’ve not scuba dived yet, or if you have dived and have yet been on a night dive, you may have seen a firefly on land. If you have then you’ve experienced a bioluminescent creature.
