Night dives are different than black water dives... at least to me. You're not going to get a real blackwater dive in the openocean. Lakes and some shore dives (Like Venice Beach Fl) can give you "derepmet" visibility where the only thing you can see is "tempered" backward in your facemask. :D Night diving is incredibly fun, and that's when a lot of the nocturnal creatures, like octopi and sharks become a bit more active. Fun, fun and you don't need a line: just a couple of flashlights.

I want to do both. :) My impression was that you may see different animals in an open ocean black water dive, like bioluminescent ones.

Pura Vida does a blackwater drift in the summer. I plan on trying it someday BLACK WATER DRIFT DIVES Pura Vida Divers : Discover South Florida SCUBA Diving
 
Well then, the same term used for two different phenomena. Cool.
