Diving Holidays in Oman
The Sultanate of Oman, is an ideal location for ocean creatures and shoals of pelagics, situated as it is on the south-eastern tip of the Arabian Gulf, on the Arabian sea, and diving in Oman is the best in the Gulf, with intact coral and plenty of big fish. Dolphins can be seen in their hundreds following tuna, turtles, big morays, Devil Rays, Black Tip Reef Sharks, Groupers, Lion Fish, Frog Fish and seahorses, and, depending upon the season, whales and Whale Sharks. There are many wrecks and opportunities for drift and other specialised dives. Unlike Egypt's Red Sea, Oman has only just opened up to tourism and is unspoilt - the corals are intact and fresh, and the dive centres are small and very professionally run. Above water there are mountains and deserts to be explored, by foot or camel safari, or by 4x4 adventure tours, such as 'Wadi Bashing' (a wadi is a dried river bed), not for the faint hearted!
