Enriched Air Nitrox (40%)

As a Nitrox diver, you can increase your bottom times and safety margins, plus shorten your surface intervals - so you can spend more time diving and less time waiting! In this program, you will learn new skills and increase your diving knowledge whilst learning how to safely plan and dive with enriched air mixtures of up to 40% oxygen. Upon completion, you will earn an SSI Enriched Air Nitrox 32% or 40% certification. The Enriched Air Nitrox Diver course is the most popular specialty course and it's easy to understand why. Nitrox means more time underwater, especially on repetitive dives. We are NOT learning to dive deeper, but we are learning how to extend our bottom times and stay down longer. The optimal range for oxygen enriched air diving is diving to depths between 18-30 meters. You may want to stay down on a special wreck a little longer, explore the reef a little extra or wait for the perfect picture. do you want to start NOW or just buy the course material?

Top Wildlife Sightings in Sweden

Sweden’s seas host cod, flatfish, herring, and wrasse, often around kelp forests and wrecks. Seals are a common highlight, especially in the Baltic, while porpoises are occasionally spotted in summer. Sharks and rays are rare but possible offshore.

In freshwater lakes, divers can expect pike, perch, and zander. Large catfish may appear in southern waters, while spawning activity in spring brings shoals of bream and roach. Visibility is best in colder months, though summer diving offers warmer but murkier conditions.
