Enriched Air Nitrox
Stay Down Longer: PADI Enriched Air (Nitrox) Specialty
Enriched Air, also known as “nitrox”, is a breathing gas with a higher percentage of oxygen than regular air. It allows divers to stay down longer, reduce nitrogen loading, and shorten surface intervals—making it a favorite for anyone looking to log more time underwater.
What's Included
