Course overview

The PADI Enriched Air (Nitrox) specialty on Havelock lets you extend your bottom time on the Andaman Sea's deeper reefs by breathing oxygen-enriched air. On multi-dive days at sites like Johnny's Gorge in the 18-30 metre range, nitrox can add valuable minutes per dive. It's one of the most practical specialties for divers doing several dives a day here.

The PADI Enriched Air (Nitrox) pathway

PADI Enriched Air uses eLearning and a digital card and can be completed largely from home, requiring just a practical analysis session before diving on nitrox.

Where you'll dive in Havelock Island

Nitrox pays off most on Havelock's deeper, multi-dive days at sites like Johnny's Gorge and Dixon's Pinnacle in the 18-30 metre range, where it can add 15-20 minutes of bottom time per dive. The clear Andaman water and abundant fish make that extra time well worth it. The course itself is mainly classroom-based with a tank-analysis session.
