PADI Night Diver Diving Course in Hurghada

Discover a different side of the Red Sea on your PADI Night Speciality Course in Hurghada. A familiar reef feels new after sunset, as your torch reveals colours and activity you may miss during the day.

Our PADI Master Instructors help you build confidence step by step. Learn how to prepare your equipment, communicate with your buddy and stay aware of your surroundings in the dark. You have time to ask questions and practise with patient support.

Watch how marine life changes after sunset while learning to move carefully around the reef. We focus on calm, controlled diving and respectful wildlife encounters. Every dive is different, so we never guarantee particular animals.

Minimum age: 12. You need PADI Open Water Diver, Junior Open Water Diver or a qualifying certification. Your existing depth and junior supervision limits still apply.

Your PADI Night Speciality Course, step by step

  • Plan your evenings. Send us your age, qualifications, recent diving experience, travel dates and accommodation. Tell us if this will be your first night dive so we can help you prepare.
  • Complete your PADI e-learning. After booking and your deposit, we send the materials with instructions. Finish the required knowledge development before your practical training, with help whenever you need it.
  • Meet your instructor and prepare. Review your equipment, torch use, buddy communication and the dive plan. You also discuss entry and exit arrangements before entering the water.
  • Complete three dives over two evenings. Your course includes two shorter dives and one longer dive. Practise the required skills with feedback between dives. We confirm the order and meeting times with you.
  • Review your progress. Discuss what you have learned and complete all knowledge and practical requirements. Once you meet these, you receive your PADI Night Diver speciality certification.

The course normally runs from shore. A boat option may be possible if an evening boat trip is operating; we confirm any alternative arrangements and costs before booking. Dive lengths depend on the plan, conditions and air use, so fixed minutes are not promised.

Personal support for your night diving course

It is normal to feel curious and a little nervous about diving after dark. We take time to explain what to expect before you enter the water. You can ask questions and discuss anything that concerns you.

Our PADI Master Instructors normally teach two students at a time. Suitable family groups can learn together with up to four students. Divers under 14 learn one-to-one unless training with their parent or sibling; we do not add unrelated students to that group.

During your PADI Night Speciality Course, you work on torch communication, navigation and staying close to your buddy. You also practise controlled movement and paying attention to the details around you.

Afterwards, explore our daily diving trips or another PADI speciality course. Extra diving and courses are separate bookings.

PADI Night Speciality Course — your questions answered

Who can take the PADI Night Speciality Course?

You must be at least 12 and hold PADI Open Water Diver, Junior Open Water Diver or a qualifying certification. Send us your age, qualification and recent diving experience. We can then confirm suitability and discuss any preparation you may need.

How long does the night diving course take?

Our course runs over two evenings and includes three dives: two shorter dives and one longer dive. We confirm meeting times and the dive order with you. Conditions, air use and the training plan determine the actual time underwater.

Is the Night Diver course taught from shore?

The course normally runs from shore. If an evening boat trip is available, we can discuss that option and confirm the arrangements and any extra cost before booking. A boat trip is not guaranteed as part of the standard course.

What will I learn on my PADI Night Speciality Course?

You learn to prepare for diving after dark, use your torch for communication and stay aware of your buddy. You also practise navigation and controlled movement. Your instructor helps you understand how familiar diving skills change when daylight is no longer available.

Can I join if I have never dived at night?

Yes. The course introduces certified divers to night diving with instructor support. Tell us about your experience and confidence before booking. We explain the plan clearly and give you time to ask questions before your first night dive.

What marine life might I see at night?

The reef can look and feel different after sunset. Some animals become more active while others shelter. Your torch helps reveal details and colours. Wildlife sightings vary, so we never promise a particular animal or encourage touching or disturbing marine life.

When should I complete my night diver e-learning?

Please finish the required knowledge development before the practical training. The price includes PADI e-learning. After booking and your deposit, we send the materials with instructions. Contact us if you need help with your study before you travel.

What if I have not dived recently?

Tell us when you last dived before booking. We can discuss a refresher or daytime preparation if needed, so you feel comfortable before diving at night. We explain any additional training, time and cost before you commit.

Are equipment and transfers included?

The price includes equipment, PADI e-learning, certification, marine fees and taxes. We include transfers within 2 km of the relevant activity facility. Send us your accommodation details for any additional taxi quote. The standard shore-based course does not include meals.

How do I book the PADI Night Speciality Course?

Send your dates, age, qualifications and accommodation details. Once we confirm your place, pay a £200 deposit per person by Wise or bank transfer. The deposit forms part of the course price. We confirm the cash balance collection time for your evening booking. We do not accept cards or PayPal. Read our booking terms before paying.

Can I combine night diving with another course?

Yes. Ask about suitable speciality courses or a diving holiday in Hurghada. Each course has its own requirements and price. We can discuss discounts for two or more courses and confirm your quote. Accommodation and airport transfers are separate unless included in your agreed package.
