PADI Nitrox Course – Maximize Your Dive Time with Enriched Air
Want to spend more time exploring the underwater world? The PADI Enriched Air Nitrox (EANx) course is the most popular specialty diving course for a reason.
Diving with enriched air (Nitrox) allows you to enjoy longer bottom times, shorter surface intervals, and reduced nitrogen build-up—all while enhancing safety and efficiency.
At Extra Fun Diving Club, we offer professional Nitrox training that equips you with the skills to safely plan and execute Nitrox dives, helping you dive smarter and maximize your underwater experiences.
Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced diver looking to extend your limits, this course is a game-changer.
Diving with Enriched Air Nitrox (EANx) means you’re breathing a gas mixture with a higher oxygen percentage (typically 32% or 36%) and less nitrogen than regular air. This reduced nitrogen content has major benefits for divers:
✅ Extended Bottom Time – Spend more time exploring without hitting no-decompression limits too quickly.
✅ Shorter Surface Intervals – Reduce the wait time between dives and fit more dives into your day.
✅ Less Fatigue – Many divers report feeling less tired after Nitrox dives due to reduced nitrogen absorption.
✅ Safer Diving – Lower nitrogen levels reduce decompression sickness (DCS) risks, making it a smart choice for multi-day diving trips.
✅ Perfect for Liveaboard & Wreck Divers – More bottom time means more opportunity to explore wrecks, reefs, and deep sites.

Practical skills development in a controlled pool environment, focusing on equipment setup, breathing techniques, and emergency procedures.
Two open water dives to apply your newly acquired knowledge and skills in real-world conditions.
For a deeper understanding, additional theory sessions or confined water practice can be scheduled. Note: The course duration may vary depending on individual learning pace and scheduling.
Nitrox is a breathing gas that contains a higher percentage of oxygen than normal air. By increasing the oxygen content, divers can extend their bottom times and reduce decompression stops.
To enroll in our Nitrox course, you must be a certified Open Water Diver or equivalent.
Our Nitrox course covers nitrox theory, equipment handling, dive planning, and execution. You'll learn about the benefits of nitrox, how to analyze nitrox cylinders, and how to configure your dive computer for nitrox dives.
The course typically takes one day for theory sessions, confined water practice, and open water dives.
You will need standard scuba diving equipment, including a dive computer compatible with nitrox. We can provide you with rental equipment if needed.
When used correctly, nitrox diving is safe. Our course emphasizes safety procedures and provides you with the knowledge to dive with nitrox responsibly.
No, Nitrox does not allow you to dive deeper. It extends your bottom time at a specific depth.
No, we provide nitrox cylinders for the course. However, if you own your own nitrox cylinder, you can bring it along.
By completing the Nitrox course, you can extend your bottom times, reduce decompression stops, and enjoy more of your dive time exploring the underwater world.
The Nitrox course is designed for divers who want to enhance their diving experience. It is not a requirement for all divers.
Yes, we offer nitrox fills for certified Nitrox divers. Please inquire about availability and pricing.
