Nitrox (oxygen-enriched air) has benefits related to the fact that your body absorbs less nitrogen while
diving - the big ones are reduced risk of decompression sickness or extended no-decompression time,
especially on
multi-day dive trips. However, it also entails risks that must be managed.
This course will teach you how to use Nitrox to improve your dives while balancing the risks and benefits.
You'll also learn valuable methods for planning your dives based on available gas supply, mix options,
no-decompression time, and your personal air consumption.
This course is highly recommended for traveling divers as well as anyone who wishes to improve their dive
planning.

on one of our trips!
