The transparent waters of the Omani coast are ideal for snorkelling and diving, and enthusiasts can expect plenty of opportunities to indulge in both. Our consultants know the best properties to stay in whatever your levels of ability.

For its extraordinarily beautiful hinterland, exceptionally clean, pollution-free waters and relative accessibility, our go-to option is the Musandam Peninsula, which is most often reached via Dubai. More experienced divers may also wish to explore the Daymaniyat and Fahal Islands.

Dive schools attached to the hotels we use can provide the guidance and gear rental. If you’re thinking of including a longer, live-aboard cruise in your itinerary, our consultants will also have some great suggestions.
