ENRICHED AIR DIVER

Stay Down Longer. Surface Feeling Better.
 

Want to spend more time exploring the underwater world and less time waiting on the surface? The PADI Enriched Air (Nitrox) Diver Specialty is the most popular PADI specialty course—and for good reason.
 

Enriched Air Nitrox allows you to extend your no-decompression limits, shorten surface intervals, and maximize your time underwater.

Whether you're diving on vacation, exploring multiple reefs in one day, or spending a week on a liveaboard, Nitrox can help you get the most out of every dive.
 

Best of all, this certification is quick to earn and will benefit you on nearly every recreational dive for the rest of your diving career.
