Descriptions

Begin your Musandam Dibba dhow cruise from Dubai with a scenic journey through the Northern Emirates toward the Omani border, where entry formalities are completed. After crossing into Oman, continue to Dibba Port and board a beautifully decorated traditional Omani dhow.

The cruise takes you along the breathtaking coastline of the Musandam Peninsula, often referred to as the “Norway of Arabia” due to its dramatic fjords, towering mountains, and turquoise waters. As the dhow gently sails through the fjords of Dibba Musandam, you’ll enjoy the tranquility and raw beauty of this unique region.

During the Musandam Dibba tour, guests can swim in the calm waters of the Arabian Gulf, snorkel to explore vibrant marine life, or try fishing. Adventure seekers can enjoy additional water activities, while others relax on deck surrounded by pristine nature.

A delicious buffet lunch featuring Omani and Arabic specialties is served on board, along with fresh fruits, snacks, and refreshments. After an unforgettable day at sea, the dhow returns to Dibba Port, followed by a comfortable drive back to Dubai or your selected pickup location.
