As a Nitrox diver, you can increase your bottom times and safety margins, and shorten your surface intervals—so you can spend more time diving and less time waiting! In this program, you’ll learn new skills and expand your diving knowledge as you learn to safely plan and execute dives using air mixtures enriched with up to 40% oxygen. Upon completion, you’ll earn the SSI Enriched Air Nitrox 32% or 40% certification.
There is no requirement to dive as part of this course, but we at Bougainville are offering one optional Nitox dive free of charge to students who have taken this course.
Here are the benefits you can expect from participating in this training program:
- Increase dive times and safety limits
- Reduced surface intervals compared to air diving
- Learn new skills and expand your diving knowledge
