Five-Star Experience from Start to Finish!
We had an amazing experience! Naz, who handled all the bookings, was incredibly helpful, welcoming, and had the best attitude from start to finish. He made the whole process easy and stress-free.
A special thanks as well to our boat captain, Abdullah. He was fantastic with everyone on board, always making sure we felt safe and comfortable. He even gave us the confidence to try diving off the boat and showed us a few fun techniques, which made the experience even more enjoyable.
It was such a fun trip from beginning to end. I 100% recommend this experience to anyone looking for a great day out!

Amazing Trip for Dimaniyat
Our trip to the Dimaniyat Islands was absolutely amazing! We booked with Norana Tours with Naz, and the entire experience was well organized from start to finish.
A special thanks to Abdullah, our boat driver, who made the trip even more memorable. He was friendly, professional, and went above and beyond to help us capture incredible underwater photos and videos with the turtles and beautiful coral reefs. His knowledge of the area and attention to everyone on board made us feel safe and ensured we had the best possible experience.
Highly recommend Norana Tours, and if you get Abdullah as your boat driver, you’re in for an unforgettable trip!

An unforgettable morning!
Hello,
We spent a superb morning with Daymaniyat Norana, the Daymaniyat island is magnificent, the color of the water is turquoise. Top-notch organization. The Boss Naz and Captain Abdullah were great hosts. Abdullah took us to beautiful spots where we were able to see turtles, corals, and beautiful fish. Abdullah went all out to find us the turtles and the best views. It was a great experience to do as a family; all the necessary equipment was there, as well as the safety of our 3 children.
Food and drinks, as well as photo taking, were included in our private boat package.
You can go there with your eyes closed. I assure you that you will not regret it!
Thanks again to the whole team. And bravo to Captain Abdullah.

Absolute Perfection on the Water!
We recently booked the Cruises to Daymaniyat & Snorkeling trip with Al Muhajer Marina, and it was an absolutely amazing experience from start to finish.
The entire process was incredibly smooth, well-organized, and stress-free. The team at Al Muhajer Marina is exceptionally professional, warm, and friendly, making us feel genuinely welcome and well taken care of throughout the day. The crystal-clear waters and the snorkeling were breathtaking, but it was their outstanding hospitality that truly made the day special. Everything was lovely, and I cannot recommend them highly enough if you are looking for a flawless, top-tier marine adventure. We will definitely be booking with them again!
