The PADI Enriched Air (Nitrox) Diver course teaches you how to dive with increased oxygen blends safely and effectively. Enriched air allows for longer no-decompression limits, shorter surface intervals, and reduced fatigue when used correctly — making it one of the most popular and useful scuba certifications worldwide.
This course makes smart dives smarter.
