It’s about 2 hours drive from Dubai . Was a bit strange when we got there, we were told that the coastguard had shut the sea?! And that we could upgrade to scuba diving or rebook.

Half-day Fujairah trip from Dubai for beginner scuba and snorkeling, with hotel pickup, full gear, and a chance to spot turtles.
“The location, the set of activities, and the arrangements were brilliant. Everything went as per schedule. This was the first scuba diving experience for me and my kids (15, 12) and it was much better than my expectations. The kids had a lot of fun, diving and swimming. My experience was personally disappointing since I could not deal with pressure equalization causing severe ear pain, but I believe the instructor's call to abandon the dive was the right one. The sea was absolutely magnificent, the weather was perfect, and my team mates were friendly. Overall, an excellent experience, and I would do it again.”

Our driver and co-instructor Mohammad was very pleasant and waited for us even though we overslept by 30 minutes. Hamdi cooked a nice BBQ. This is perfect for any person regardless of experience or not. All in all good value for money and a fun time.”

Beginner-friendly scuba in Fujairah plus snorkeling with turtles, underwater photos, and BBQ lunch, with Dubai hotel transfer in a small group.
“Fahad (sorry about spelling!) was fantastic - he took the beginners divers, was very calm, reassuring and fun! My friend was terrified at the start and felt instantly safe. You go to different spots to both snorkel and dive and can swim through swarms of different fishes - we even seen turtles! Nice changing facilities, comfortable both and tasty lunch afterwards! Would definitely recommend diving here over in Dubai / Jumeriah! Driver was also amazing - really friendly and flexible. Because of Dubai traffic, pick up and drop off can be long but this can’t be helped. 5 ⭐️ stars, would recommend!”
