The PADI Night Diver pathway

PADI Night Diver is a recreational specialty that counts toward the PADI Master Scuba Diver rating and can satisfy the Advanced Open Water night-dive adventure requirement.

Where you'll dive in Tarkarli Malvan

Night dives use the sheltered, shallow bay off Tarkarli and Malvan, beside Sindhudurg Fort. The water is warm at 26-29C, and in the post-monsoon October-to-May season the Konkan coast stays calm and clear, which makes after-dark diving relaxed. Expect octopus, crabs, moray eels and other nocturnal reef life.
