Pattaya, Thailand's Only British-Owned PADI 5-Star National Geographic IDC
So you want to go DEEP, huh? At Aquanauts, we say "can do!" Our Technical Dive Centre will teach you how to become an Extended Range Diver and then move up to Tri-mix, where you breathe helium as part of your mix. Book a trip now and we'll meet you at 100 meters!
This is still a 50-meter course; you will be using more equipment and more mixtures of gases. You will be using double tanks with two different mixtures of decompression gasses. Decompression is unlimited. This course has a minimum bottom time of 120 minutes and runtime of 240 minutes. Includes manuals, certification and diploma. Tanks and equipment not included.
This course allows you to dive to 60 meters using helium, nitrogen and oxygen mixtures. This allows us to breath a mixture that has less nitrogen narcosis allowing us to think more clearly. This course takes 5 days to complete. Boat trips, certification and manual included in this price. Helium, tanks and equipment are not included.
The depth limit for the Tri-mix course is 100 meters. You will learn the importance of using helium to get rid of oxygen toxicity and get rid of the problems with nitrogen narcosis. The same equipment will be used as in the Technical SafeAir Diver and Extended Range course. Minimum bottom time of 75 minutes and run time of 240 minutes. Tanks, equipment and helium not included. Instructors helium costs will be divided up equally between the students. Note: Those interested in touching the magical 100-meter mark on thier final dive of the Tri-mix course can do so for a additional 5,000 baht. Dive will be done in Northern Thailand.
