- bruno d0 contributionsSnorkeling day on Oman islandsVery nice trip to the Islands. Easy to book. Great boat.amazing snorkeling area and great advises from the crew to see Turtles and amazing fish!!!

- S9458LYrebeccag0 contributionsHighly recommended .. must do !!!!The entire trip was spectactular , from the ease of organising it with the tour company, to the details shared abt the trip prior to the day and the actual trip. The boat ride, the Captain , the plentiful of refreshments & sandwiches and the snorkelling gear was all as promised. What stole the show though was the view and the water !!! Highly highly recommended and the afternoon boat with the sunset was perfect timing. We would 100% do it again !!!!Written April 25, 2023

- Travellinginstyle100 contributionsThe most amazing day of the holidayThe most amazing day of our holiday. Captain Idris looked after us brilliantly and knew exactly where to go to see wonderful dolphins and to swim with turtles - incredible. The organisation was extremely professional. And I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.Written April 6, 2023
- nickpY322MG0 contributionsSwimming with TurtlesVisitors to Oman seeking some of its delights should try this charter company. The boat we were on was very well-equipped and comfortable and we were provided with snacks and soft drinks for the 45-minute journey. Once there you can snorkel and admire the coral and swim with the turtles. The boat we were on could take 15 people, though we were only 5, and was equipped with a kayak and a paddleboard as well of course with the necessary snorkels and flippers. An unmissable experience.Written April 5, 2023

This was honestly one of the best experiences of my life! I grew up in Oman and this was the first time I visited the dimaniyat islands. We booked a private boat and everything from the weather, to the company was worth every penny.
Our captain, Idris was extremely kind and helpful. He took us to 3 different locations to snorkel and each bared their own beauty. He took some wonderful videos underwater too!
I would highly recommend this tour and this company for anyone wanting to visit the islands.

As a group, we went snorkeling with the Captain, Idris, who was welcoming, accommodating and professional. He took us to the most beautiful places to swim with fish and turtles. Idris was very protective also. He had a great awareness of the sea and the locations we were in. He knew nothing would be in the water that could harm us. After a couple of stops we then spent a couple of hours on the beach where the captain provided shelter and a BBQ of chicken and mutton. It was delicious. The ride on the way back to the marina was a lot of fun. Idris let us sit at the front of the boat whilst water was splashing all around us. It was a thrilling ride. Overall, the day has been fantastic and I would highly recommend this to anyone who is looking for a fun experience that you'll never forget. This was my first time snorkeling and I would do this again in a heartbeat.

I think that it says it all if I mention that we went twice in two days with this company. First time with captain Andrew who took us to two snorkeling locations where we saw so many turtles, "nemo" and even moray eel. We really enjoyed it so much and our children of 7 and 8 years too (be aware that they are very good swimmers) that we booked it for the following day as well.
Second day we went with captain Idris. He took us in to two different places and 3rd location was the same as the previous day. On this trip we saw even more turtles (sometimes even 9 together), stingray, "nemo", puffer fish and many other beautiful species of fish. We could get enough. Coral was alsi beautiful and amazed us both because we both snorkel on every holiday possible and this coral was in a good condition.
On the way back to the marina I spotted dolphins and suddenly they were everywhere, so many of them, jumping around our boat and playing. Idria took his time and didn't rush us back so we could enjoy this spectacular encounter. Lovely trip with lovely people. I would also like to thank Sarah who helped me organise everything❤

What an amazing last day we had in Muscat. We chose for this boat trip to see some fish and turtles.
El Capitano is a very friendly, knowledgable captain and he brings you to the nicest snorkeling places Muscat has to offer.
The party on the boat was not oo big (15pp) so it was not too crowded. Snorkeling equipment was in perfect state, there were more than enough drinks, sandwiches and chips to last the whole day on the water.
The last stop (of 4) was for me the most interesting. Snorkeling with turtles .... what an amazing feeling being so close to these beautiful animals.
This is truly a MUST DO trip while visiting Muscat!

Absolutely awesome experience, great value for money. Every step of the process is great customer focussed. Sarah is awesome and really informative. The captain of the very professional boat made what could have been a choppy ride very smooth, don’t ask me how, food drinks and snacks constantly available.
We got three stops first one fish and coral and saw one turtle whilst snorkelling, second one a lovely sandy beach and explore the small island. Third one Tirtlr City. i can honestly say we saw about 20-30 turtles all swimming, eating and doing their stuff. A totally ama ing professional service so thank you so much guys.

A great trip in a comfortable boat. Captain Idriss was very friendly and helpful. Snorkelling around Daymaniyat islands was excellent in the clear and warm waters, with plenty of time in the water. Unfortunately no whale sharks spotted on the trip, not for lack of trying by the captain.
Highly recommended.

Excellent experience as always with this company and our captain Idris. We did not have the chance to see the whale sharks but Idris did his best on our way back to spot them. We found good spot without to many boats to see many turtles and various fish speces. We live in Dubai and we have done this tour many times. This is the best company!

We (2 adults, 2 children 12 and 14 years) were lucky to have the boat to ourselves with Idris, the captain. Idris was very knowlegeable about the area and was very helpful with the snorkel equipment (professional gear!). Drinks and lunch were perfectly fine. If you would like to spend a super trip, I recommend this operator. You will not regret it; warm sea water, plenty of fish and even turtles (Idris knows where to find them!). Just perfect.

This trip was amazing, we saw mamy turtles, corals and fishes. Captain stopped at 3 spots to give us the chance to observe three different areas. Stuff was very nice and friendly. Great contact via whats up. They also provided the whole snorkeling stuff, life jackets, they even have SUP if you are tired and would like to explore it in a different way :) they also provided cold drinks, fruits and snack. Really recommended🙂
