A nitride-based light emitting device capable of achieving an enhancement in light emission efficiency and an enhancement in reliability is disclosed. The nitride-based light emitting device includes a first-conductivity semiconductor layer, a second-conductivity semiconductor layer, an active layer arranged between the first-conductivity semiconductor layer and the second-conductivity semiconductor layer, the active layer including at least one pair of a quantum well layer and a quantum barrier layer, a plurality of first layers arranged on at least one of an interface between the first-conductivity semiconductor layer and the active layer and an interface between the second-conductivity semiconductor layer and the active layer, the first layers having different energy band gaps or different thicknesses, and second layers each interposed between adjacent ones of the first layers, the second layers exhibiting an energy band gap higher than the energy band gaps of the first layers.
