Enriched Air (Nitrox) Diver

• Who it's for:

  Open Water Divers & Advanced Open Water Divers

• What it’s about:

  Enriched Air is air with a higher oxygen content and a lower nitrogen content than the air we breathe. The advantage of using Nitrox for recreational diving is that your body has less exposure to nitrogen at any given depth, meaning that you can dive longer at that depth than with air before reaching no-decompression limits. While this is half-day course is technically one of many specialty certifications, it requires no dives. The focus of the course is on the information you need to stay safe while diving with Nitrox.

• Other info:
