All our pleasure diving is done from our East Coast center in the Miramar Hotel, Al Aqah where we offer 2 morning dives, an afternoon dive and a night dive (night dive minimum of 4 divers). You want to be at the diving center between 45 to 60 minutes before your first dive so you get enough time for paper work, kitting and dive briefing which takes place on land 20 minutes before the dive time. Please note we are unable to hold the boats if you are delayed. On weekdays, we offer 2 dives in the morning, departing at 9.30am and 1 dive in the afternoon departing at 3.30pm. On the weekend or public holiday, we have 3 dives scheduled as follows:
- 9am, 11 am, and 3pm: single tank dives, mainly dedicated to advanced level divers (deep dives)
- 9.30 am, 12.30 pm and 3.30 pm: single tank dives for open water divers, dedicated to local dive sites
- 10 am for a two tank dive trip and 3.30 pm for a single tank dive. The two tank dive trip is mostly in the Khorfakkan area and dedicated to any certification level

Rebreathers are intriguing. They’re cutting-edge dive technology. Always wanted to try one? The Discover Rebreather program lets you dive with a recreational rebreather or a technical closed circuit rebreather (CCR) in controlled conditions with a PADI Rebreather Instructor or Tec CCR Instructor. You'll discover how quiet diving can be without bubbles and quickly learn how different buoyancy control is. A Discover Rebreather experience is an ideal opportunity to give rebreathers a try before you sign up for a full course. Or, if you’re already a rebreather diver, you can participate in the program to try a new or different type of rebreather. Prerequisites:
- Be a PADI Open Water Diver (or equivalent)
- Have a minimum of 15 logged dives
- Are at least 18 years old
