The popularity of enriched air diving continues to grow as divers realize the benefits of using nitrox such as extended bottom time and reducing overall nitrogen load on multiple dives. In this course, you'll learn the benefits, potential problems, equipment considerations and other information you need to dive enriched air nitrox with an EANx dive computer. By successfully completing this course, you'll qualify for the PADI Enriched Air Diver certification. This certification means that you're qualified to buy and rent EANx dive gear, plan EANx dives, and make those dives using a EANx dive computer.
To start the course click on the PADI eLearning icon to register for the online course. Follow up at Jack's Diving Locker in Kona, Hawaii where you participate in practical application sessions and complete the certification. This PADI specialty course doesn't require scuba dives, but you will then be qualified to dive nitrox on any of our boat trips such as our Two-Tank Day Trip or our Advanced Dive Trips. Advanced dives may include deep, drift, exploring a lava cavern, or diving on a small wreck - the type of diving most divers use nitrox. Most of our divers also use nitrox when doing multiple dive days. This certification also counts toward the PADI Master Scuba Diver rating, the highest rating in recreational scuba diving.
