The Enriched Air and AOW Adventure
The Enriched Air and AOW Adventure gives you the chance to explore new aspects of diving in authentic and relaxed surroundings. After a fun and action packed week, you can proudly pull out an Advanced Open Water (AOW) and an Enriched Air Specialty Diver certification card!
Diving with Enriched Air (Nitrox) is great when you know how. It allows you to stay at a maximum depth for longer and reduces your surface intervals. The PADI Enriched Air Specialty course teaches you all about the effect Nitrox has on your mind and body when you dive with it, and how Nitrox can really enhance your diving.
Prior to the Enriched Air Specialty you'll further your diving skills with 5 different diving techniques in the AOW. The course consists of 5 fun adventure dives, each accompanied by a knowledge review. The Deep Dive and the Underwater Navigation Dive are mandatory. The Night, Drift and Naturalist Dives are recommended to get the most out of your Advanced Open Water course in Dahab. Other Adventure dives are available upon request. The world famous Canyon and Blue Hole are only fully accessible for AOW divers certified to dive to 30 meters. During the week you'll get the chance to experience them both.
Continue the adventure with optional fun dives. Enjoy a camel ride along the beach and soak up that 'Dahab Feeling'.
