Nitrox

Want more time underwater and shorter surface intervals? Enriched Air Nitrox is the ultimate tool for the modern diver, especially in a world-class destination like the South Ari Atoll.

This gives you significantly longer no-decompression limits—meaning more time exploring deeper reefs, tracking marine life, and taking photos, alongside an increased safety margin.True to our luxury resort-standard heritage, we offer this essential specialty with a focus on seamless, premium hospitality, ensuring you gain the technical confidence to dive safely on Nitrox anywhere in the world.
