What’s there to see?

This region is famous for its corals, fish and the kelp. Kelp is growing in coldwater currents during the summer time and dies in the winter with temperatures of 28° up to 30° degrees. After the kelp is gone it gives you a glance at amazing untouched reefs with lots of brain- and table corals, as well as numerous different fish schools. Turtles, octopus, blue pointed- and eagle rays are the typical inhabitants besides. On the top of it you will see moray eels, lobsters, big shrimps and lots variations of different crabs and nudibranches. A must for every macro-lover.

How does it go?

We reach our dive sites by 4WD vehicles, leading us first on a paved road through a magnificent desert landscape between Salalah and Mirbat. There is the beautiful coastline on one side; on the other you have the impressive Dhofar-mountains. Road crossing camels, goats, donkeys and cows are often the reason we have to stop on the way. Just after Mirbat we take a turn onto a gravel road, which leads us through wadis with plentiful of different birds – such as flamingos, pelicans or storks. With all those things to discover the time just flies by until we park the car at a beautiful shore for diving.

Once arrived back at the Dive Center, you can rinse your complete dive equipment with fresh water - so everything will be ready for the next day. Afterwards you can enjoy the great services of the Crowne Plaza Resort.
