Snorkelling and Scuba Diving

Witnessing the school of colourful fishes is a sight that should not be missed either. Ensure that you go with experienced operators in the area for your safety.
Traditional Boat Sailing
Set sail on a dhow, a traditional wooden vessel used for centuries by fishermen and traders. Book your ride in advance and sail past the Sun Temple, Chandrabhaga Beach and other landmarks and be transported into the past as the salt laden breeze runs through your hair.
