Description of the Nitrox Specialty Course:

The PADI Enriched Air (Nitrox) Specialty Course is perfect for certified divers who want to get more out of every dive. By using enriched air with a higher oxygen content and less nitrogen, you can enjoy longer bottom times, shorter surface intervals, and feel less tired after diving. This is a one-day, non-diving course that focuses on theory and practical skills. You’ll learn how to plan dives with Nitrox, analyze tanks, and set your dive computer correctly.

Courses are available every day!

What to Expect:

  • Theory Session – Spend a few hours at our dive center learning about the benefits, risks, and procedures of diving with Nitrox. You’ll practice analyzing tanks, learn how to set your dive computer, and plan dives using enriched air.
  • Optional Dives (Add-on Available) – While not required for certification, you can upgrade your course with 2 ocean dives on Nitrox to apply what you’ve learned and enjoy the benefits in action.
  • Final Exam – At the end of the course, you’ll take a short multiple-choice test to check how well you understand Nitrox, how to stay safe, and how to plan your dives.
