Enriched Air Nitrox Specialty Course

Extend Your Bottom Time!

Whether you're into wreck diving or photography, on a dive holiday, or just diving locally, Nitrox will keep you where you want to be for longer... underwater.

 

You will learn how you can dive longer without decompression stops, have shorter surface intervals, and enhance your diving safety.

 

Due to the reduced nitrogen in the breathing gas, you will feel better and less lethargic after your dives!

 

You will further develop your skills with Nitrox dive planning using computers and nitrox analysers, and you will learn the correct procedures for obtaining Nitrox from any dive centre in the world.

 

Course Format

Half Day or One Evening Theory plus Three Dives

 

The Enriched Air Nitrox specialty course is available at request but usually conducted in combination with a Wreck Course or as part of an Advanced Open Water Program. Theory is about four hours which is either half a day on a Sunday or a Wednesday evening and three dives are required in the ocean to complete certification.

 

The practical ocean component can be completed on any of our day trips. If conducted in combination with the Wreck Course the dives are completed on the HMAS Brisbane or if it is being completed as part of an Advanced Open Water Program the dives are conducted on a liveaboard weekend trip.

Important Information

Included: SSI Crew Pack, transport (day trips), charter costs, refreshments and all your meals for the weekend (liveaboard only), tanks & weights, nitrox fills, international certification.

 

Not Included: All scuba equipment. WH&S recommends that each diver uses their own personal items to reduce the possibility of disease transmission. Snorkelling packages are available to buy at special "Student" discount rates.

 

Requirements:

  • SSI Advanced Adventurer certification or equivalent.

  • Log book proof that you have dived within the last 12 months. If you have not dived in the last 12 months it is recommended that you take a refresher course. This can be incorporated into your course.

  • WH&S requires every diver to carry their own visual and audible signalling device. Snorkel Safari Brisbane recommends a safety sausage and dive whistle which are available for purchase ($29.97).

 

Recommended: Dive gloves and a dive knife. Gloves protect you from cuts and scrapes and a dive knife will allow you to cut underwater entanglements such as fishing line.
