Excellent. Fast, exciting boat trip. We booked the 3 hour dolphin watch and sorkelling. We must have seen about a hundred dolphins. They were everywhere. Price for 2 was 42 OMN or about £90. Excellent value. Snorkelling was very popular. I only had a dip but could see loads under the water. Snacks provided. If you go to Muscat thus is a must.…

We did the dolphins watching & snorkeling tour from 10am till 1pm which was perfect with children. Very well organized by professional staff & Captain, clean boat with all safety equipment. We very lucky to watch 2 different species of dolphins and the snorkeling spot was amazing with clear water, many fishes and a couple of sea turtles. Highly recommended!…

We are a young family and the turtle snorkelling trip to Bandar Al Khairan was just perfect. The pick up from hotel was smooth, boat was comfortable and the sea was beautiful! We saw many turtles and the kids were delighted.

We were picked up from the Al Bustan Palace hotel at 8:15am and met to boat at the jetty about 10mins drive away. There were 17 of us in total but the boat is very spacious and it didn’t feel crowded. Lots of water and soft drinks on board - and clean beach towels! We left about 08:40 and headed out to the open Gulf to an area where loads of dolphins were playing. It was simply beautiful to watch these creatures. The fast boat then headed to Dimaniyat nature reserve island. It took about 40mins to our first of two snorkelling stops. The boat is fully equipped with masks and fins (and life jackets if you are a nervous swimmer like my other half). We saw turtles and lots of fish in a tranquil area of water near the shore. We then anchored at the island and went to shore. We were given huge lunch boxes (1 was enough for 2 of us) and had the chance to snorkel again and relax on the beach for an hour. On the way back, the Captain took along the Muscat coast and showed us lots of natural and man made sites before returning at about 3:30pm. All in all, a brilliant way to spend a day in Oman under a warm desert sun.…
