The Damaniyat Islands are a group of nine islands about 18 km offshore to the North of Muscat. They are Oman’s only fully protected marine reserve and the stunning marine and island environments are still in near-pristine condition. The biodiversity is plentiful with some of Oman’s best-developed coral reefs, nesting sea turtles and a plethora of inquisitive inhabitants such as schooling fish, moray eels and tropical reef fish; eagle and mobula rays can be expected between May and October, with the leopard shark also visiting Oman’s waters. Blink and you will miss something!
There are a total of 17 dive sites in three island groups at the Damaniyat Islands, varying from around 5m to 30m, making it perfect diving for less experienced divers seeking to increase their log book entries and confidence.
