A snorkelling trip to the Daymaniat Islands is a must for anyone living in or visiting Oman. This protected nature reserve is an underwater paradise with around 1100 different species. Beautiful corals, turtles, rays and fish of every colour, think "finding Nemo" in real life.
Meet the team at the SeaOman office, where you will be given snorkelling equipment and the welcome briefing. You will then get on board the boat for the 45 minute ride to the Daymaniyat Islands. There are many different spots to visit and the boat captain / guide will select the best spots for the weather and the group on the day. You will visit 2 spots to snorkel at and explore, before returning to the marina.
From the 1 May - 31 October, the islands are closed to allow the turtles and birds to breed uninterrupted, but the snorkelling is wonderful with lots of turtles around at this time of year, so still well worth a visit.
Meet at the SeaOman Dive Centre office
