Course Details

Diving enthusiasts who wish to explore the lush underwater world of Marsa Alam can do so by taking up a Nitrox scuba course available at Deep South Divers. Whether an experienced or novice diver, learning how to dive with Nitrox (enriched air) opens new opportunities and increases your level of underwater safety. Below is all there is to know about the Nitrox scuba course available with Deep South Divers.

Why take a Nitrox scuba course?

Enriched air, more commonly known as nitrox, is a mixture with an O2 percentage higher than air and between 22% and 40% oxygen. The benefits are:

  • Extended Bottom Time: Because of the reduced amount of nitrogen in your system, you can remain underwater longer without reaching your no-decompression limits as quickly.
  • Reduced Nitrogen Absorption: Lowered nitrogen levels decrease the risk of decompression sickness, thus making your dives safer.
  • Shorter Surface Intervals: You’ll get shorter surface intervals between dives, allowing for more excellent underwater time.

Did a week of diving with Deep South Divers. They really went up and over my expectations. An experienced team, with a good idea of how to fulfill your wishes. Did use my own gear, but from all of the divers who used their rental gear I got back that it was in a very good state. Also they were very careful during rinsing of my own gear. The staff was correct and very friendly. So for me a positive experience and recommend to go diving with them. I will be back for more diving.

I STRONGLY RECOMMEND everyone to book with Deep South directly, or at least through a reputable hotel etc. I booked with a person in town who assured me they were an agent of Deep South etc. This turned out not to be true, and the information they provided me was all wrong (prices, where we would be diving etc). It’s hard when they are so pushy, but just say NO and book direct. When I got to the Deep South’s dive office and realised all of the info I got was wrong, I was super upset. Muhammad the owner came and met with me & talked with me about how they could fix it even though it wasn’t Deep South’s fault to begin with. We sorted everything out, and I have to thank Muhammad for his professionalism and service. He really saved the day and went out of his way to help me.
