Diving with enriched air is possibly one of the most requested specialities. You will learn to use different mixtures of oxygen and nitrogen to get the most out of your dives. With this certificate, you are allowed to use air that is enriched with oxygen up to 40%.
Scuba diving with nitrox opens up a whole new world of underwater exploration. At Punta Amanay, we offer a comprehensive SSI Nitrox course in the stunning waters of Fuerteventura, designed to give you the knowledge and certification you need to dive with enriched air safely and confidently.
Nitrox, or Enriched Air Nitrox (EANx), is a breathing gas mix that contains a higher percentage of oxygen, and therefore less nitrogen, than regular air. This means longer bottom times, shorter surface intervals, and a reduced risk of nitrogen narcosis, especially valuable for repetitive dives or deeper adventures. Our nitrox diving course combines theory with practical application, teaching you everything from oxygen exposure limits to analysing nitrox mixes before a dive.
Whether you’re an experienced diver looking to extend your dive time or a beginner eager to upgrade your skills, our nitrox certification is the perfect next step. The SSI Nitrox course is short, focused, and fun, ideal for anyone who wants to dive safer and smarter. Plus, there’s no better place to do it than in the warm, crystal-clear waters surrounding Fuerteventura.
Our instructors will guide you through every step of the process, ensuring that you feel comfortable and confident handling enriched air. You’ll learn how to plan dives using nitrox, how to use an oxygen analyser, and how to manage your dive computer with EANx settings.
By the end of the course, you’ll earn your enriched air nitrox certification, allowing you to rent nitrox tanks anywhere in the world and take full advantage of the benefits of nitrox diving.
