A great way to swim with fish and turtles! - Captain B was great! He checked on everyone throughout the trip and offered snacks and drinks (water and juice). They provided the snorkeling fins and masks. The boat goes very fast over choppy waters (at times). The snorkeling was great! We saw fish of various colors and sizes and a group of turtles! What an amazing experience!

Consistent with the description. To do - Yeah, good! We chose to leave at 1:30 p.m. Schedule respected, group of 10 people. The loaned material, fins, mask and snorkel are quality, we saw pretty fish and turtles. The snack is quite satisfactory. Really nothing wrong. We had a very nice afternoon.

Best trip with sonny global scuba - The trip with this company located I. Seeb (global scuba) was the best and most awesome tour, our captain sonny was a soldier doing his best to make everyone relax and enjoying all through the tour. We saw sharks, turtle family, fishes and sting rays and morina. Sonny is the best.

very nice - Excellent experience. It is a must-do when you are in Muscat. Crew and team of global Scuba were professional and excellent. I wish them all the best. Ride to the islands was a little rough and bumpy so make sure you can deal with it. unfortunately, the area is crowded with tourists. It is in deed the fault of people like me. I hope that the tourism vs. economy vs. nature is on the right balance, which appears as of now the case.
