The following courses are available on our liveaboard Colona VI and on land.
* PADI Enriched Air - Nitrox Course
It is only of two dives which can be done in just one day on the liveaboard. You will need to watch and video, complete knowledge review and then a final exam.By diving with enriched air rather than standard air you can extend your no decompression limits. This means more time underwater! For example, if you dive to 15 meters /50 feet on air, your no decompression limit is 80 minutes. But, diving on EANx 36 Nitrox gets you 220 minutes of no decompression time - an increase of 140 minutes!
* PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy
With PADI's Peak Performance Buoyancy course you are given an opportunity to polish up on your buoyancy control beyond the Open Water Diver level. This is over one day course that helps you with controlling your buoyancy for taking photos.

- Peak Performance Buoyancy fundamentals
- Fine-tuning buoyancy underwater
- Weight position and distribution
