night dive

When I started diving dive lights were weak and yellow, and the latest greatest was an HID light, so expensive few people had them. Well those are nothing compared to these cheap high intensity LED lights that we have now, and it seems like most of my buddies have lights that you could shoot an...

I am heading to Maui in two weeks with my 13 year old son. He has more than 50 dives under his belt including night diving and shore diving in Hawaii. We live on Oahu and shore dive frequently. I am considering doing a night dive on Maui at Black Rock. Any suggestions on how to best do this...

I've been coming here for years, my son isn't with me this time and I'd like to find something different than the usual shop dives. I stopped counting dives after 300, so if anyone is doing any shore dives, night dives or has a boat and wants someone to buy gas, let me know. I'm in Kaanapali but...

Night diverss take notice. We have wanted to offer a glow-in-the-dark Scuba BCD name tag for several years but have never had a material that would hold the "glow" for more than just a few minutes. We have just secured a vendor that has developed a specially engineered glow plastic made to...

I'm planning to do some fluoro diving and am shopping around for lights/filters to shoot video. The ultraviolet lights seem appealing because they don't require yellow filters on mask and camera, but are they bright enough to get good video? If anyone can recommend a brand of UV light that...

Many deep sea fish come shallower than we think - especially at night. Diving in Songefjord, Norway, there are sometimes 'deep sea' fish up shallow, such as big-eyed Chimaera (ratfish or ghost sharks - a type of deep sea shark/ray) and also velvet bellied dogfish (also called purple bellied...

I am making a return dive trip to Kona in August, and I will be staying at a condo a few blocks away from the Sheraton. I am wondering if anyone has done the manta night dive at the Sheraton as a shore dive. I did a boat dive at the old airport last year, and it was wonderful, but super...

I'm planning on a Manta Ray Night dive, in Hawaii, with my GoPro Hero 4 Black. 1. What will be the best setting? 2. They supply a 1,200 Lumen strobe, is that enough or do I need more light?

Welcome All Scubaboard divers, we would like to offer you diving in Hurghada: This marine reserve with a modest entry fee has a host of dive sites characterized by steep drop offs, fabulous coral reefs and the possibility of encounters with barracuda, tuna and even bigger pelagic species. That's...

We're starting a new project and I was just curious if the community here had some feedback and observations to contribute. We're starting a multi-institutional collaboration to try to understand what factors accelerate or place controls on the diversity of fish color over time. There are a lot...

Hello looking to see if anyone will be diving around Miami / Pompano Beach area next week Oct 26th to 30th. I am looking to do some day and night dives.

(Don't know where to post this.) I am a relatively new diver, that went on a night dive with a group of people who are much more experienced, which I screwed up and had to bail out, inland diving up north in a quarry with very cold thermocline. I had two lights, a 1000 lumen LED spotlight...

Hi People I have long fancied doing a nightdive into Midnight New Year then hitting a bar after. Florida seems a good option for me to travel to for good weather and nice water at that time of year. Anyone know of any dive centre that offers this or groups that do it? Regards, Phill_es

Finished a mod of my DS161 strobes to use on my Philippines trip in two months. I wasn't completely happy with the color produced by a normal flash as it's more washed out and not quite as "natural" as I'd like. To solve I tested a low, medium, and dark blue plexiglass on an aquarium. My...

Great mix of house reef/wall dives, night dives and boat dives. A must experience for divers.

I've never done a night dive before, and the only UW camera I have is the GoPro Hero 4. I have my first night dive planned for this weekend. Has anyone had any success with a GoPro on a night dive with a dive light? *crossing fingers*
