The sports participant wears a headpiece made of rubber, plastic or some other suitable material to which may be affixed any number of suitably sized waterproof lights. The lights can either be attached directly and permanently to the headpiece or can be housed in an enclosure with the lens or lenses showing through.The headpiece can be firmly attached to the wearer's head by different combinations of straps and fasteners. If necessary the invention can have an auxiliary power source carried by the wearer. The nighttime watersports illuminator can be used in a number of different watersports. It can increase the duration of the wearer's available time of participation in his or her particular sport by allowing the activity to be conducted after dark.
