We partner with Rewilding Britain to help protect our natural spaces for future adventures.
All centres are vetted for safety and quality. Your adventure is in good hands with adventuro.
Diving with enriched air allows you to extend no-decompression limits and reduce surface intervals, making it one of the most practical speciality courses for recreational divers. This one-day programme teaches you how to analyse gas blends, manage oxygen exposure, and set your dive computer correctly for nitrox use. It is suitable for anyone looking to increase their efficiency and comfort on repetitive or deeper recreational dives.
Your training begins with PADI e-learning, which introduces the theory behind enriched-air diving. You’ll learn how different oxygen percentages influence no-decompression limits, how to calculate maximum operating depth, and how to assess the risks associated with higher oxygen levels. The online section can be completed at home at your own pace.
The in-person session focuses on practical skills. You will learn how to use an oxygen analyser to verify tank contents, record oxygen percentages accurately, and adjust your dive computer to the correct mix. Instructors also explain how to manage cumulative oxygen exposure and how enriched-air considerations affect dive planning. Although no dives are required for certification, this workshop prepares you to use nitrox confidently during future diving activities.
By the end of the course, you’ll understand how to incorporate nitrox safely into your diving routine and enjoy the extended limits and efficiency it provides.
The session takes place at the Dubai training facility, where classrooms are equipped for hands-on practice with analysers, cylinders, and dive computers. This controlled environment allows instructors to walk you through calculations and planning methods without time pressure.
Dubai is a popular region for nitrox diving due to its range of recreational depths and warm conditions. The knowledge you gain can be applied immediately on future dives across Dubai, Fujairah, or international destinations.
A PADI Open Water Diver certification or equivalent is required to enrol. You should be comfortable with basic dive theory and able to use a dive computer at an entry level. No recent diving activity is necessary, as this speciality focuses on theory and equipment handling rather than in-water performance.
Participants must be at least 12 years old and complete the e-learning portion before attending the workshop.
This centre has extensive experience teaching nitrox divers and provides clear, structured instruction suited to both newer and advanced divers. Instructors ensure you understand not only how to use enriched air, but why certain limits and procedures exist, building long-term confidence for planning your own nitrox dives.
Training is delivered in a friendly, organised environment with well-maintained equipment and straightforward demonstrations. The centre’s community-focused approach means divers receive support beyond the course itself, helping you apply nitrox techniques effectively on future dive trips.
Nitrox diving is primarily planning-based. The safety considerations—oxygen exposure, MOD, and gas analysis—are learned through theory and equipment handling rather than in-water practice.
Completing the course allows you to use nitrox immediately on future dives, even internationally.
After completing the course, you will be certified to dive with gas blends containing 22% to 40% oxygen.
These are the most common recreational nitrox mixes used worldwide.
