Don't think I could dive at night. It's too dark to be in the huge expanse of the ocean (even if it's somewhat sheltered within the reef). The ocean is a huge place with HUGE creatures and at night I can't see them coming. 😰
At the age of 11 years, having been in the water with a very large shark that was circling me in the Caribbean, I completely understand your reasons. By the way, National Geographic, on television, does not do sharks justice at all. They look very alive, very different in person. It is the reasons why I refuse to go on boats, ships, I have refused cruises several times since that time. The ocean is my kryptonite.
Foolish optimism is the key to a good night dive! Cheers for the comment WK! The fact that there was so much natural food in the area gave me some comfort, plus diving is so much fun I can't pass up the opportunity. You are right though.. huge creatures that we can't see coming!
Canadian Spider-Man, Canadian Spider-Man does whatever a Spider can!!! Oh yeah and FIRST!!!!!
Hey thanks so much Susan! It's a passion of mine and Australia's diving is beyond compare!
Bravo Canadian Spider-Man!
Thanks for watching! It is such a great area and so full of life. Cheers.

It will be very difficult for the sharks to eat you if you are on land. Good strategy! Cheers!

You need to go for a real night dive during coral spawning
YES! Agreed. I've seen videos and that would be incredible to see in person. Cheers!
