Trimix Diving

Trimix diving is a specialized form of scuba diving that uses a breathing mixture of three gases: oxygen, nitrogen, and helium. It’s designed for deep dives to reduce the risks of narcosis (mind-altering effects of nitrogen at depth) and oxygen toxicity. By adjusting the proportions of these gases, trimix allows divers to reach greater depths safely and with better performance. It requires advanced training and equipment, as managing gas mixes and monitoring gas toxicity are critical. Overall, trimix enables divers to explore deeper underwater environments more safely and with improved comfort compared to traditional air or nitrox diving.
