Are you tired of short dives and feeling drained after a day on the boat? Imagine extending your bottom time, reducing fatigue, and maximizing your enjoyment of every dive. At Sink or Swim Scuba, we can make that a reality with our SDI Computer Nitrox Diver course!

What is Nitrox and Why Should You Care?

Enriched Air Nitrox (EANx) is a breathing gas with a higher oxygen content and less nitrogen than standard air. This simple change unlocks a world of benefits for divers, allowing for longer bottom times and increased safety margins.

My Personal Experience: From Tired Diver to Energized Explorer

As an avid diver myself, I know firsthand the difference nitrox can make. Before getting nitrox certified, dive trips often left me feeling exhausted. After a few dives on air, I was ready to head back to the resort and crash. But with nitrox, it's a completely different story.

Now, I enjoy significantly shorter surface intervals, meaning less time waiting on the boat and more time exploring underwater. And the best part? I feel fantastic after my dives! I have the energy to properly care for my gear, download and edit photos, charge batteries, shower, and still enjoy dinner and a show. Nitrox has truly transformed my diving experience.
