Nitrox Diving

ARE YOU FED UP WITH FEELING DOG TIRED AT THE END OF YOUR DIVING DAY? 

WOULD YOU LIKE TO INCREASE YOUR SAFETY WHILE DOING MULTI-DAY REPETITIVE DIVES? 

WOULD YOU LIKE TO HAVE LONGER BOTTOM TIMES? 

ARE YOU READY TO CHANGE WITH THE TIMES?  Then DIVE ENRICHED AIR NITROX!   

It's all about time...BOTTOM TIME! Nitrox has been the breathing gas of choice for the military and for recreational divers throughout the world for several decades. 

We know that nitrogen is the culprit responsible for two diving maladies: DCI (decompression illness) and narcosis. 

Therefore anything divers can do to reduce the amount of nitrogen in their gas will be beneficial in several ways. Typically, nitrogen is reduced simply by adding oxygen, thus making the gas "oxygen enriched." 

The course tuition of $235.00 is a package price; included are 2 open water dives (boat or shore), rental scuba equipment (BCD, reg wetsuit, all student materials, fill station tour, c-card and snacks. Divers must be Open Water certified (or equivalent). 

Certified in a single day, your Enriched Air Nitrox Diver certification allows you to dive longer, reduce narcosis and post-dive fatigue, shorten your surface intervals, and add a safety margin automatically. Also, the gas used for the production of nitrox is measurably cleaner, as a rule, than standard compressed air.
