Taking to the water at night at Wakatobi opens up a whole new world for divers and snorkelers. Scuba diving at night, either off the resort beach or from one of the Wakatobi boats, is an amazing way to see what happens when the sun goes down. One or two night dives (depending on trip length and weather) is offered from the day boats, while you can dive any night on the house reef (unguided buddy teams). Just gear up at the dive centre and walk straight in!

While night diving is popular, night snorkeling is equally spectacular, and available for all guests. Pick up a dive torch from the dive centre and head out from the beach; after nightfall, look up from the water for the most magical view of the starry night.
