Get Nitrox Certified
The cost of PADI eLearning is included in our premium course price.The PADI Enriched Air Nitrox course is a dry course that does not require any inwater training and therefore students are not required to fill out a diver medical. The course is split into the independent online eLearning course followed by the practical with a 30 minute hands-on orientation with an instructor at Ocean Frontiers.
The PADI Enriched Air Nitrox certification enables you to rent and dive with scuba tanks filled with enriched air up to 40% oxygen anywhere in the world. We offer a premium service to all our student divers by including the eLearning in our course price so there's less steps for you and more free-time spent learning and having fun. The course paperwork will also be sent ahead of your arrival to be filled out online to ensure there are no unexpected delays to the start of your course with us.
At Ocean Frontiers our company policy is that all divers wishing to do 4 dives in a day - a morning and afternoon 2 tank - must be nitrox certified and dive with nitrox tanks on the afternoon 2 tank. We highly recommend all divers that are diving all day to dive on nitrox throughout their dive trip.
