Description

We’ll pick you up at 6AM in the morning from your hotel in Dubai, Sharjah, or Ras Al Khaimah. The shuttle transport will take you from the UAE and across the border to Khasab Harbor in Oman where our friendly team will meet you. En route, you can enjoy spectacular views of the Arabian Gulf during the panoramic coastal drive.
From the port, you can board the traditional Omani dhow for the full-day cruise into the spectacular Khor Shimm in the Musandam peninsula. You also get to see the coastal villages as we cruise along and there’s a very good chance of spotting playful dolphins and many other exotic marine creatures. We will anchor at the famous Telegraph Island – it is a repeater station built in 1864 by the British to connect Bombay (India) with mainland Britain by an underwater and overland telegraphic cable passing via Basra in Iraq and Turkey. You will definitely enjoy swimming and snorkeling in the pristine and calm waters at Telegraph Island. Lunch and refreshments are served onboard. Snorkeling equipment and towels will be provided on the dhow.
