PADI AIR DIVER
Water Sports: Scuba Diving
Capacity:
Max 8 guests (base trip price includes 8 guests)Description: The PADI Enriched Air Diver course is PADI's most popular specialty diving course, and it's easy to understand why. Diving with Enriched Air Nitrox allows for more no-decompression time, giving you extra time underwater, particularly on repetitive dives. By breathing enriched air, you're exposed to less nitrogen during your dive. The higher the oxygen content in the tank, the less nitrogen you breathe in. This can benefit you in several ways, such as extending your no-stop dive time for longer durations, especially on repeated dives. Alternatively, you might choose to stay within the air dive limits, but with the added safety of reduced nitrogen intake, increasing your overall safety margin.
