Description

We welcome you to explore the mesmerizing treasures of Oman’s enchanted shoreline. Come and see dolphins and experience the thrill of a lifetime. The waters around Oman are filled with extensive marine life and one of the most familiar sights is the dolphins. Seen all around the year, dolphins can be found any distance from offshore. There is no single location in which you are most likely to see cetaceans. While we are very successful in sighting dolphins, there is no guarantee every trip see dolphins.

Great trip, with a guilty conscience...

We had a lovely boat trip. Everything was well organized. We were picked up on time at the cruise terminal, had great dolphin observations and a boat driver who was very attentive and made the observation quite interesting. Negative we found the amount of observation boats! Initially there were only three boats, but later there were so many that it became more of a "drift hunt"! That's a shame, because we thought the tour was really nice, but we didn't want to harm the animals. It is surprising that the dolphins no longer retreat! Nevertheless, we enjoyed the proximity to the animals very much and can only recommend the tour provider!

Thank you very much for sharing your feedback and we’re delighted to know you enjoyed the dolphins trip. We truly appreciate your concern regarding the number of boats observing the dolphins. We completely understand your point, and we also share the same concern for the well-being of these beautiful creatures. Unfortunately, the dolphin-watching area is open to all licensed operators, so we have limited control over other boats in the vicinity. However, we always ensure that our crew follows responsible and eco-friendly practices to minimize any disturbance to the dolphins. Your feedback is very valuable to us, and we’ll continue encouraging respectful wildlife viewing among all operators.

Fantastic 😻😻😻😻😻

Before we even left the dock, the most stunning sea turtle popped up. Really amazed at how many dolphins we sore and the scenic views were breathtaking. We also got to see local fishermen catching Tuna, littlerally the biggest fish I've ever seen. Perfect amount of time and would definitely recomend. Thank you for a wonderful day, beautiful views and gorgeous dolphin watching. Really well organised, informative and just a fun experience.

Too Many Dolphins

I was so sure I wouldn't see anything knowing my luck, the min we stepped into the boat before leaving the marina and the most stunning sea turtle popped out of nowhere, 30mins in and I've never seen so many dolphins, great views, such a fun experience and really enjoyed this trip.

Mesmerising dolphin sighting

We went nearly one hour into the deep sea with stunning Arabian Sea water for the dolphin watching. Our speed boat was absolutely smashing and just that experience was worth everything. There was water and snacks and the guide showed us important buildings along the coastline. Finally, we reached a spot and to our surprise spotted hundreds of dolphins!!!!! Jumping and playing with our boat. The water was choppy but our captain was experienced and also fun. Have never seen so many dolphins together ever in my life. Highly recommend!

Great experience !

The staff were very professional with us from the moment we booked our trip. Even sending us a kind reminder the day before, with a pick up location and a picture of the meeting site. Also, staff were extremely friendly from the get go, our boat's captain was knowledgeable in the species of dolphins we got see, even educating us on their swimming and eating patterns and how he uses that information to safely approach groups of dolphins without disturbing them as they "ate their sardine breakfast." Pleasantly and unexpectedly, the captain took us on a little tour after the dolphin watching around the shores of Oman, as we had some spare time.

We are glad that you had a great time. Thank you for your valuable feedback. We hope to see you again!

Dolphin Watching in Muscat

This was a great experience we saw lots of dolphins and our captain was always the first to know where to go and spot the dolphins. I highly recommend. Pro tip take the early tour to avoid all the other boats I went at 8 and there were 2 other boats, by the time we left several more boats had arrived.

Operator response

Thanks for being our wonderful guest. hope to see you again back in Oman.
