Muscat – Daymaniyat Islands
2nd -5th August 2006
Hi all from the Gulf or planning to come to the Gulf,
Hereby finally my promised Diving report from Oman.
It toke me a long time to finally start with it but here it comes.
Day 1: Drive from Dubai to Muscat
It was a nice 5 hours drive from Dubai to Muscat in Oman.
We made this trip with another couple, who are Australian, but who are also living in Dubai.
We arrived at our Hotel , hotel Marjan, on Wednesday evening and were happy to have an early night as we had to wake up early the next day.
Day 2: First diving Day:
We arrived early morning at our dive center (Global Scuba Llc.).
See hereby how we would get onto the diving boat and then be brought into the sea, never experienced that before! But a good way to stay dry!!!!
On the way to our first dive spot, we got surrounded by dolphins, 200 no even 300 dolphins, it was like wherever you looked on the horizon you could see dolphins jumping, magical feeling!!!!
For the first dive we had a very good visibility (up to 20 meters) and had some nice Blue trigger fish, many parrot fish and even a leopard shark.
Second dive of the day more nicely coloured fish and some nice corals and an electric ray and a turtle joined us.
