No need for a return tripVerified review
I would not dive with them again. The guiding was not very good, I had to show him things I had found before. We never traded guides, so I cannot comment on the other guide who was also the cruise director. There was no guide at night at all which also was nonstandard. The food and cabin were quite fine, but the diving was lacking.

Great marine life in Oman Verified review
I had a great time diving in Oman. Quite surprising, the marine life is some of the best I have seen for quite a while, lots of fish and healthy corals. The boat and the crew are excellent. The water can be chilly due to thermals, you need a 5 mm suite.
