When it comes to choosing between wetsuits and drysuits for night diving, consider the following:

Wetsuits:
- Thickness: Opt for a thicker wetsuit (5mm or more) to retain body heat in colder waters.
- Comfort: Wetsuits are more flexible and comfortable for movement.
- Insulation: They provide some insulation but can get chilly during extended dives.
- Water Exchange: Water enters the wetsuit, and your body warms it up.
Drysuits:
- Insulation: Drysuits keep you completely dry, providing better insulation.
- Undergarments: Wear thermal undergarments for added warmth.
- Seals: Proper seals (wrist, neck, and ankle) are crucial to prevent water entry.
- Buoyancy Control: Drysuits require additional weight for neutral buoyancy.

Remember, both options have pros and cons. Choose based on water temperature, personal preference, and comfort. Happy night diving! 🌙🌊

Fogging in your dive mask can be frustrating, but there are several effective ways to prevent it. Here are eight pro-diver methods:

Baby Shampoo: Apply a few drops of baby shampoo on the inside of your mask. It helps prevent fogging.
Spit or Saliva: Use your saliva on the inside of the mask’s lens. Surprisingly effective!
Commercial Defogging Agents: Spray specialized defogging solutions on your mask lens before each dive.
Toothpaste: Apply a small amount of toothpaste and rinse it off thoroughly.
Washing Up Liquid: A tiny bit of washing up liquid can work wonders.
Glycerine Soaps: These also help prevent fogging.
Mask Clearing During the Dive: If fogging occurs underwater, let in a small amount of water to clear the mask.
Juice of a Potato: Yes, you read that right! Some divers swear by it!

Remember, clear vision enhances your diving experience! 🌊🤿

Night diving requires extra precautions for safety, Here are some essential guidelines:

Buddy System: Always dive with a buddy. Keep close contact and maintain visual communication.
Pre-Dive Briefing: Discuss the dive plan, signals, and emergency procedures with your buddy and guide.
Underwater Navigation: Practice good navigation skills. Use a compass and familiarize yourself with the dive site during daylight.
Dive Lights: Carry at least two dive lights (primary and backup). Check batteries before each dive.
Surface Marker Buoys (SMBs): Deploy an SMB at the end of your dive to signal your position to the boat or shore.
Buoyancy Control: Avoid rapid ascents or descents. Maintain neutral buoyancy.
Avoid Overexertion: Night dives can be more tiring. Conserve energy and stay calm.
Emergency Procedures: Review emergency ascent, buddy separation, and lost buddy protocols.
Stay Warm: Dress appropriately and prevent hypothermia.
Know Your Limits: If uncomfortable, ascend slowly and end the dive.

Remember, safety first, and enjoy the magic of night diving! 🌙🤿
