We saw dolphins and black tip sharks and snorkelled with turtles which was fantastic. The Daymaniyat island trip is a must do in Oman.

    Fantastic day. Prompt response from tour organisers, I booked the afternoon the day before. Pick up from hotel worked really well. 8.30 departure from marina. Great boat, driver, captain, food. Just double check your mask and snorkel fit. We saw a pod of dolphins, swam with turtles, had a snorkel on a secluded beach and finally saw Portuguese forts and Sultan palaces of Muscat from the sea. A very memorable day for the family.

    Explanation about the canal and the islands was not given during the trip. And the captain didn't understand enough English to understand our questions.
