Specialty Courses
ENRICHED AIR NITROX (EAN), Online Theory Plus 2 dives $200
You see them everywhere these days, strapped to boat racks, propped up on beach tarps amid piles of dive gear — cylinders with bright-yellow and green bands signifying enriched air nitrox (EAN). At Alpha Dive Vietnam we believe so strongly in the benefits of diving enriched air nitrox, we give it away for free to those that are certified, nitrox divers. All our staff and interns dive exclusively on EAN as it has proven to be significantly safer than diving on air, provided the maximum operating depth for the Gas being breathed is not exceeded. The cool thing about diving on nitrox is that, depending on how it’s used, you can either substantially stretch out your time at depth, or you can build a sizable safety cushion into your dive plan. Which is how we use it here at Alpha Dive Vietnam. In nitrox, the oxygen concentration can be anything above 21 percent. That means there’s less nitrogen in the mix, which is always a good thing in scuba diving. So Nitrox is a must for beginners to professionals alike and is probably the most important course to take after your Open Water 20.
