The Great Underwater Pumpkin Parade
After prizes have been awarded, divers will gear up for the underwater parade! First, join your guide for a dive briefing and pre-dive safety check. Then, follow them underwater as they navigate the snorkel trail, pointing out interesting wildlife along the way. Pose with your Pumpkin as a Photo Pro snaps pics throughout the dive!
Up to 6 divers may follow each in-water guide. Divers must be age 12 or older to join the parade. We recommend divers hold a Night Diver or Advanced Open Water diver certification, or higher, and have prior night diving experience.
Keep costumes ocean friendly please! Don’t forget that costumes should not get in the way of your scuba gear and cannot harm the reef or marine environment in any way. Be sure to secure or leave behind any parts of your costume that are loosely attached.
