Highlights

Interested in learning to dive on Nitrox? Wanting to dive for longer before the 'no decompression limit' kicks in? Then the PADI Enriched Air Diver Course is your ideal choice!

  • Enriched air, also known as nitrox or EANx, contains less nitrogen than regular air.
  • Breathing less nitrogen means you can enjoy longer dives and shorter surface intervals. No wonder Enriched Air Diver is the most popular PADI® specialty.

Dive center

Our PADI 5 Star IDC Dive Centre is on the idyllic Gaya Island, just 10 minutes by boat from Kota Kinabalu, the capital of Sabah, Malaysia. 

The  dive centre is right on the beach, surrounded by dense, tropical rainforest, from where we offer adventures both below the water’s surface and above. We cater to fun divers, pro divers and groups with tailored programs to suit your needs and all-inclusive packages means that once paid, there is nothing else to worry about. Our island operations are supported by our travel and dive shop on the mainland, where you can book accommodation, travel and buy any equipment you may need for diving, hiking Mt. Kinabalu or jungle trekking. If you’re visiting or diving Sabah, dive with Downbelow.
