Nitrox training

Post by BUZO71 »

So, I'm going to Cabo in two weeks and realized Nitrox might be good to have. Where should I go and what should I expect to pay for it? Thanks!

Most any shop can help, but within 2 weeks might be tough. Lots of instructors about

Do it online with PADI, then just stop by a shop and let an instructor do the predive simulations with you..

I tried.... it was about $250 through PADI. It is much cheaper through a shop. Unless I'm doing something wrong... which is quite possible.

True, online is not cheap.. you pay for the convenience..

A shop will probably charge you $100-150 for a couple hours.
