Yes at night, though.

You can see the stars from the dark side of the moon, but if you get deep enough in the ocean, it’s just completely pitch black in the visible spectrum.

My bad - I forgot about the "deep" part by the time I responded to this, and was envisioning the surface, looking up at well, the moon actually. Yeah the deep deep ocean is absolutely pitch black, except for rare lava or phosphorescence or such, you are correct.
