None will give you a night pass.
There are regularly scheduled night dives sponsored by local dive shops where there is a dive master on the dive, but local shops do not take on the liability of giving out night passes

I cannot answer, but i do know that diving BHB is extremely tide dependant, and tides seldom worry about timing themselves to fit a diver's wishes.

We checked the tides and the only day we can make it is on Monday.I'll have to check some shops out again.I know one was going on Tuesday night,But we cant make it on that day.

Good luck. I have only had the pleasure of diving BHB a few times, and have yet to do a night dive on that unusual site.

Share your experience.

I did a night dive awhile back with our local club.My wife is certified now and she wants to go and see it.Hopefully we'll find a way.I know I enjoyed it and want to do it again.

I take it you are talking about Monday, August 1st. High tide in the morning is 7:32am--evening 8:13pm. You will want to get in the water 1/2 to 1 hour before high tide. I suggest going out to the snorkel trail and turning left (east) both morning and night.

Chances are good one of the dive shops is offering a free night dive--check Force E, Pura Vida Divers, and BHB Scuba's websites or Facebook...Or the Blue Heron Bridge Dive Club also on FB.

I just checked and both FE and PV have a free night dive on August 2nd. Couldn't find info for BHB Scuba night dives, so call....

That's the day.We made plans to go awhile back hoping some one would be sponsoring that date.I'll keep looking and calling places later today.Can't take another day off work to go Tuesday.Thank's for the help.

Both Force E and Pura Vida are sponsoring the night dive on Aug 2nd. Check with the scuba shop located in Phil Foster Park (I don't remember the name...). Get with them ahead of time and I believe they'd issue a pass for you on Aug 1st. We've done it a couple of times earlier this year (January and April) and it worked out great. They did say they'd like a couple days notice so they can inform whoever they need to inform that there'll be divers after dark.
