Trip highlights

01 Watch bottlenose, common, spinner, and Risso's dolphins along Oman's coast
02 Combine dolphin watching with snorkelling in crystal-clear waters
03 Explore coral beds home to an exotic variety of fish
04 Relax with swimming, sunbathing, or quiet time on the boat

Make your dreams come true with double the pleasure of dolphin watching and snorkelling in one trip. Regular visitors along the coast of Oman include bottlenose dolphins, common dolphins, spinner dolphins, and Risso's dolphins. After seeing these beautiful cetaceans, unwind by snorkelling in crystal-clear waters at a nearby snorkelling site, where coral beds provide a home to an exotic variety of fish. While we are very successful in sighting dolphins, there is no guarantee that every trip will see dolphins.

Embark on an exciting dolphin-watching adventure and keep your cameras ready to capture these playful creatures in their natural habitat.
