Diving Oman

Oman offers uncrowded dive sites with a huge amount of marine life and healthy reefs. Plus sightings of whale sharks are virtually guaranteed from September to November. On any given dive you can expect to see huge schools of fish and reefs teaming with smaller life. The underwater scenery is similarly dramatic with picturesque walls and reefs festooned with healthy finger and fan corals. The very best diving in the whole of Oman is at the Daymaniyat Islands.

These are very easily reached from the dive centre near Kempinski – just 45 minutes by fast boat. This string of offshore islands is located north of Muscat and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Here you can see pristine coral gardens and various shark species, including the occasional leopard shark. The best time to dive the Muscat region of Oman is from late September through to early May. Which means the 40% special offered by Kempinski Muscat comes at the perfect time.

Why Visit Oman?

Oman is becoming a top luxury dive destination, mainly because of its safety, modern infrastructure, hospitable people and affordable quality hotels. With daily direct flights from London and many other European international airports, Oman is especially suitable for families who prefer easy travel. Oman is also a very safe, moderate and friendly country, a top consideration for many travellers. To really get the most out of a visit to Oman we strongly recommend combining your diving holiday with a trip to some of the interior of the country, perhaps to one of the luxury mountain retreats, or even to a desert camp.
