Experience one of the most magical underwater experiences Bonaire has to offer during a unique night dive around the full moon. In the crystal clear waters of a private house reef, you will discover the famous Bonaire coral reef in a totally different way. During these special evenings, ostracods, microscopic crustaceans, rise en masse from the depths and create an enchanting, fluorescent play of light in the dark. This rare natural phenomenon is only visible a few days a month and makes this dive an exclusive experience. Under the guidance of experienced professionals, you will experience complete peace, wonder and an intense connection with nature, as the reef comes to life without artificial light.
