More information
A Night Dive Guide leads recreational divers on nocturnal underwater excursions, typically within the Great Barrier Reef or Western Australia’s coastal hubs. You might work on a liveaboard vessel, for a dive resort, or at a coastal dive centre. Night Dive Guides focus on specialised navigation, torch communication, and nocturnal marine life.
