The beauty of the underwater world at the Daymaniyat Islands, we believe everyone should have the chance to experience. With a variety of marine life and corals that has left more than one customer commenting “it’s like watching Finding Nemo”, whether you are new to snorkelling or an experienced diver, it never ceases to impress.

We have 1 accessible dive boat at each centre with a hoist and sling to allow disabled people to access the boat and the water. If you prefer to travel on the dive boat in your personal wheelchair, we can secure your chair using straps (we just ask in advance for the dimensions of your wheelchair to calculate how many wheelchairs we can fit on the dive boat at once).

Enjoy a kayaking experience, our favorite is a sunset kayak, where you can experience the array of colours as the sun sets over the sea. We can’t guarantee, but sometimes you can even be joined by sea turtles.
