Nitrox

[Reidkon]

We are booked for two weeks, arrival January 23rd, staying at Mi Casa, the same B&B we stayed at on our first visit to Cozumel 7 years ago. We haven't picked a dive shop yet and are leaning towards Aldora but wondering if any of the shops offer free nitrox?

Free Nitrox? I would be surprised if they did. I have always had to pay for the extra O2. B.

Never heard of any. Aldora definitely charges for it.

Oh well. Didn't think so. I wonder how/why the shops on Bonaire give it away?

Well, I would say there's no such thing as "free." It might be included, but there's no such thing as a free lunch or free nitrox

Doesn't the shop at iberostar do free nitrox? I know someone does. I've seen it advertised. Never from a valet op though.

I believe you are correct. They are the only ones on the island that I have heard of which do so.

I did ten dives with Dressel last year, they did offer free nitrox when I was there.

With the extra NDL would they allow you to dive your tank?

When those diver using air pay the same price as those divers using nitrox, I call that free. What do you call it?

I appears that the dive ops in Bonaire made the investment up front for membrane systems so it doesn't really cost them any more for EAN than air. I believe most EAN on Cozumel is still PP blended so it cost the producer more for O2 and labor.

Some of the southern resort op that pump their own gas may offer free EAN.
