Daymaniyat Islands Snorkeling

The Dimaniyat Islands have the best Corals in the whole of Oman and the Diving and Snorkeling is on a par with Diving in the Red Sea. They are teeming with aquatic life, you have a very good chance to see Turtles and for certain, shoals of colorful tropical fish. For the lucky ones you might see a majestic Whale shark.

The Highlight for many visitors to Oman might be a Dolphin watching & Snorkeling trip or just a Snorkeling trip and without doubt for the very lucky ones it will be to Snorkel or dive with a Whale Shark.

Nomad Tours offer Snorkeling trips to both the Daymaniyat Islands and to Bandar Khayran.

• For snorkeling trips to the Daymaniyat Islands the boats leave from the Al Mouj Marina see interactive map.

The Daymaniyat Islands have the best Snorkeling but it is more expensive then Snorkeling in Bandar Khayran and the trip is more weather dependent. The islands are exposed to the weather, Snorkeling in Bandar Khayran is in a sheltered lagoon.

If you are travelling with small children and you are concerned about the weather. Than the choice should be Bandar Khayran see below:
