Discover the Magic of a Fluorescent Night Dive

Experience Roatan’s reef like never before with a Fluorescent Night Dive—a truly surreal underwater adventure that reveals the glowing secrets of the ocean after dark. Unlike traditional night dives, this experience uses specialized ultraviolet (UV) and blue light equipment to illuminate marine fluorescence, allowing you to witness corals, fish, and invertebrates radiate neon-like colors. The result is a mesmerizing light show that most divers never get to see.

This type of dive offers a new perspective on familiar reef life, turning even the most common species into glowing wonders. Because it’s a low-impact and controlled experience, it’s both safe and suitable for advanced divers and those with prior night diving experience.

What This Fluorescent Night Dive Includes

• One-tank guided Fluorescent Night Dive led by a professional dive guide
• High-powered UV torches and barrier filters for mask and lights
• Briefing on how fluorescent diving works and what to expect
• Night dive protocols and safety procedures specific to UV conditions
• Boat transportation to reef sites known for strong fluorescence
• Small group sizes to maximize safety and visibility
• Optional upgrade for underwater photography equipment

Why Choose a Fluorescent Night Dive in Roatan?

Roatan’s reefs are ideal for Fluorescent Night Dives due to their healthy coral formations and abundant biofluorescent species. Because many marine creatures such as scorpionfish, anemones, and hard corals fluoresce under UV light, you’ll see the reef literally in a different light. In addition, our expert guides will help you identify which organisms are glowing and explain the science behind this natural phenomenon.

This dive is an excellent complement to your PADI Night Diver course or Advanced Open Water training. If you’ve already tried a standard night dive, a fluorescent dive takes your experience one step further. For more insight into how this style of diving works, we recommend reading the PADI Blog’s article on fluorescence.
