What is Nitrox?
Nitrox — enriched air, internationally “Enriched Air” — contains more oxygen than normal compressed air. That means longer bottom times, shorter surface intervals and often less tiredness after diving. One of the most useful courses there is, especially if you make several dives a day on a diving holiday.
Pure theory — no compulsory dive
With us, the Nitrox course is a pure theory course. You learn how to check Nitrox cylinders, set your dive computer correctly and dive safely with enriched air. No additional compulsory dives are needed — afterwards you can use Nitrox straight away on any dive trip.
