Overview

Mobile ticket
The Daymaniyat Islands don't look like much from the shore. Beneath the surface, it's a different world entirely.
Explore one of Oman's most pristine marine nature reserves on a guided snorkeling tour from Muscat. Glide over vibrant coral reefs teeming with tropical fish, spot graceful sea turtles drifting through crystal-clear turquoise waters, and if the season is right, swim alongside whale sharks in one of the Arabian Sea's most biodiverse ecosystems.
The Daymaniyat Islands are a protected marine reserve — meaning the coral is untouched, the water is exceptionally clear, and the marine life is abundant in a way you simply won't find at unprotected sites.
No experience needed. All snorkeling equipment is provided, and your expert guide ensures a safe, relaxed, and memorable time in the water.
Perfect for families, couples, and first-time snorkelers looking for an unforgettable half-day escape from Muscat into Oman's stunning natural coastline.
