Give yourself more no decompression time with the Nitrox Course on Koh Lanta!
Nitrox Koh Lanta (PADI Enriched Air | EAN) is one of the most popular PADI specialities. What is Nitrox? It’s a gas mixture of nitrogen/oxygen with the oxygen percentage higher than 21% that’s found in the air. This calculated percentage of oxygen allows scuba divers to dive longer with no decompression time and have shorter surface intervals. The main advantage of nitrox is the longer bottom time in dives from 15 to 30 meters deep. The PADI Enriched Air Course in Koh Lanta is a “dry course” meaning it can be all done without stepping into the water. The main point of the course is to understand the difference of enriched air and to know how to analyze your tank. Our course addresses the use of gas with 22% – 40% oxygen, with emphasis on 32% and 36% oxygen. The theory part is always assigned online. The analysis of your gas mixture can be done online with a dive simulator that allows you to compare the bottom time. Or, it can be done with an analyzer in the dive shop.
