Additional Information

Dolphins, including spinner, bottlenose, and common species, frequent the Oman coast from Musandam to Salalah, with Muscat being a common spotting location. Other marine wildlife such as Whale Sharks (typically seen from May to October), false killer Whales, and the occasional Humpback Whale can also be observed. We strive to provide responsible wildlife encounters to safeguard our Dolphins and other local natural and human resources.

The coastline of Oman, with its numerous rocky outcrops and valleys, is often referred to as the “Omani Fjords”. These Fjords are home to many peaceful, naturally sheltered areas ideal for activities such as swimming, snorkeling, kayaking, and SUP boarding. We’ve selected a snorkeling location for this experience that’s shallow, teeming with vibrant corals, and inhabited by green and hawksbill turtles throughout the year.
Don’t forget to bring along your sun protection items, and we recommend you opt for coral-friendly alternatives to assist in conserving our corals.

Great experience and perfect length for a nice trip - Great trip with captain Bilal. It was perfectly timed for us to enjoy both dolphins and snorkeling but not to exhaust us so we could enjoy the afternoon in Muscat.

Exclusive 4 hour boat trip. - We had a really enjoyable exclusive boat trip with QTours and the boat captain Ahmed who was amazing and a true credit to your company. We were lucky enough to find dolphins and also to swim with turtles. We had a 4 hour trip and everything was on point. Our best boating trip we have ever done. So keep up the great work QTours.

Fun for All the Family - My family and I (2 adults and 2 kids under 6) had a fantastic time on our dolphin watching and snorkeling trip. My eldest daughter and I have been dolphin watching with Q Tours before, so this was my second trip with them. Captain Bilal was very accommodating and a great host onboard. We saw a lot of dolphins and one huge pod with lots of calves. The snorkeling was also great. We saw plenty of fish and a few turtles. Maitha and Shahad were also very helpful and made booking the trip very easy.

Dreamy with stars - We came to Muscat with the Aida, but fortunately decided against the Aida excursion. Only a 15-minute drive to the marina, where there are several providers. We had the best conditions with Q-Tours, Bilal as captain and a small console boat with 2x250 HP and were not disappointed. We saw lots of dolphins, had a wonderful coastal tour and snorkeled with turtles and lots of fish on a reef in a beautiful bay. Thanks Bilal, 5 stars!
