Course Description
Elevate your diving capabilities with the PADI Enriched Air Nitrox specialty course from Dive&Dive. This internationally recognized certification is essential for those looking to maximize their bottom time and reduce surface intervals. The course focuses on the safe planning and execution of dives with enriched air up to 40% oxygen, a highly valued skill on liveaboards and at dive centers worldwide. You'll learn how to analyze your gas mix, label your cylinder, and understand the physiological benefits of breathing nitrox.
The theoretical portion of this specialty is conveniently completed through PADI's digital platform, requiring only a few hours of self-study. This is followed by a practical session at the dive center, where you'll master essential skills such as gas analysis and cylinder preparation. While open water diving is optional, the core competencies of planning and gas management are fully covered. The course is open to divers aged 12 and above, holding a PADI Open Water Diver certification or equivalent, and requires a medical statement.
Dive&Dive offers this valuable training with a strong commitment to diver education, backed by its PADI certification. The price for this specialty starts from €119. The practical application of nitrox diving is highly beneficial, especially for those making multiple dives per day or following "U" shaped dive profiles. By absorbing less nitrogen, divers can extend their bottom time or shorten surface intervals compared to conventional air dives.
This specialty is a logical next step for many divers, improving their ability to plan and execute dives more efficiently. It complements other specialties and opens up more planning possibilities. For those interested in the technical aspects of diving, this course can be combined with the Gas Blender specialty. Practical sessions are available daily, offering scheduling flexibility. If you haven't dived for six months or more, a refresher course is recommended before starting.
