Muscat Daymaniyat Islands Snorkeling & Kayaking Tour - Sea Turtles

Snorkel and kayak
at the Daymaniyat Islands

Depart from Al Mouj Marina in Muscat and ride a speedboat for about 45 minutes along the coast to the Daymaniyat Islands Nature Reserve. At the islands, snorkel at two coral spots, try a clear kayak and enjoy some rest and free time, then sail 45 minutes back to the marina.

Snorkeling gear, life jackets, sandwiches, fruit, juice, water, government permits and island entrance fees are included. Choose a half-day or full-day option when booking.

Swim with sea turtles over coral gardens

When you arrive, the captain anchors the boat and gives a short briefing on safety and marine conservation. Then snorkel at two spots rich in coral and marine life, swimming among schools of tropical fish and next to sea turtles. If you are lucky, you may spot rays, blacktip reef sharks, moray eels or even whale sharks.

Look into the sea from a clear kayak

Glide over the clear water in a transparent-bottom kayak and watch turtles and fish pass beneath you. Throughout the tour, the crew captures your underwater moments with GoPro photos and videos.

Relax on the island beach with snacks

Between snorkeling sessions, relax on board with sandwiches, fresh fruit and cold drinks. From November to April, you can explore the white sand beaches and rock formations of the island and take photos. On the way back, you may see dolphins swimming alongside the boat.

※ Island beach landings are only possible from November to April. From May to October the islands are closed for turtle nesting season.
※ Marine life other than sea turtles (rays, whale sharks, dolphins, etc.) is wild and sightings are not guaranteed.
※ The schedule may change depending on sea and weather conditions.
