Wonderful opportunity to swim with turtles

Wonderful experience in the crystal clear waters of the Gulf of Oman. Swimming and snorkeling with the turtles was a great experience. We never felt rushed at either swim area and could take our time and enjoy the beautiful nature, then had a lovely beach bbq lunch at the end of the tour.
Wonderful experience - a must do while in Oman!

We really enjoyed the day - very well organized, on time, available. The team was super helpful, we saw 20 turtles and had the pleasure to spend 2 hours on the most beautiful beach in Oman with an amazing lunch. Definetely suggested!!
Well worth the price and the time!

Assad and Mazen were 10/10 - in stearing the boat, talking to the guests, finding turtles (!) and even playing volleyball on the beach.

Would do it again, like one of the guests who said it was his 5th time
Worth the time!

A very nice trip. Fahad was an experienced and friendly guide to the diving grounds. The snorkeling was very interesting, with the backside of the island even more interesting than the front side. We saw turtles and lots of popular fish.
