Snorkeling Fujairah

Enjoy a snorkeling adventure in the Gulf of Oman and experience the underwater world with ease. Upon arrival at the snorkeling location, get kitted out with equipment that will allow you to observe the underwater attractions for extended periods with relatively little effort and to breathe while face-down on the surface of the sea. 

Snorkeling is a fun, safe, and easy way of seeing the incredible world beneath the waters of Fujairah. The snorkeling tour is suitable for both young and old and it’s also a budget-friendly water activity because you just need a diving mask and a snorkel. You can also wear swim fins (optional) if you want to propel faster in the water and without exerting too much effort. Plus, you don’t need to worry about wearing special clothing because you can just put on your regular swimwear and you’re off to go. To boot, there’s no pressure to be a great swimmer to participate in this activity as you can snorkel with a life vest on.

On the way to the snorkeling site, you get to ride a luxury boat and enjoy amenities like a sundeck, sunbed, and its own private bathroom. When you get to the snorkeling area, you’ll be given your snorkeling gear and you’re all set to explore the marine environment and see the creatures that reside within.

We serve complimentary soft drinks and water on board to keep you refreshed and give you plenty of energy for more snorkeling action.

We do not have a specific snorkeling location in Fujairah because we conduct our tours in different places each day. Our instructor will get in touch with you before your trip date to verify the final location. We go to all snorkeling sites but to give you an idea, here are some commonly visited locations:

Keep your eyes open for manta rays, devils rays, spotted eagle rays, dolphins, and blacktip sharks that are also be spotted cruising in these waters. If your timing is right, you might encounter seasonal visitors like whale sharks.
