Big Bubble Dive Resort on Koh Tao, Thailand has always been aiming high to give scuba divers a world class experience when it comes to diving in Koh Tao. Now we have some exciting news for you!

In cooperation with UV Dive Koh Tao, we are proud to be the first and only dive center in Thailand to offer a unique experience, called UV Diving!
UV diving will bring your night dive experience to a completely different level. You will enter a whole new underwater realm, where the aquatic life like corals and tropical fish glow in the most incredible fluorescent colors like green, yellow and even pink and orange.

Since this phenomenon is caused by fluorescence, it is only visible with a special near UV (Ultra Violet) dive light and a special visor mask.

The corals absorb the blue UV light and re emit it in the most fabulous colors, creating a scene, that will be imprinted in your memory forever. The coral reefs glow like a psychedelic underwater landscape, shrimps, crabs and tropical fish display flashes of green, yellow and orange colors to add to this fluorescent artwork. UV Diving will give you a mind blowing experience that will for sure rank very high in your list of ‘best dives ever’!

On your first UV Diving Experience we will be:

• Taking you only to the dive sites we have already explored with UV diving equipment and found best suited for you UV Diving experience.
• Making sure that there are no “normal” night divers present on the dive site, so there will be no light pollution disturbing your UV Dive.
• Having a maximum of 4 divers per dive dive leader on each UV dive to make it a truly great experience.
• Maximizing your dive time! Our UV night dives are rarely under 60 minutes; so you will have plenty of time to enjoy you first UV Dive.

To be able to come and explore this new and mesmerizing world in a safe and enjoyable way, we require you to have at least an Advanced Open Water certification (AOW) and previous night diving experience.
This way we can guarantee our divers an unforgettable experience in UV diving and preserve the beautiful reefs on Koh Tao for many more to enjoy.
