Snorkel at the Daymaniyat Islands

North of Muscat, off-shore from the town of Barka are the Damaniyat Islands. These are one of Oman's best dive spots but are equally good for a snorkel or swim in beautiful surroundings.

Duration

Half Day

Transfer from your hotel in Muscat to the Marina, to embark on a boat trip to Damaniyat Islands. Enjoy a snorkelling day trip to visit one or more of the nine neighbouring Damaniyat Islands. Several kinds of Coral Reefs, a large number of Sea Turtles, white sand beaches, and pristine blue water are the jewels of Oman. You might even be lucky enough to spot some dolphins on the way (not guaranteed). Access is restricted to ensure the nesting turtles are not disrupted and the coral is not damaged by too many visitors.
