About this site
Aquarium is a wall dive at the Daymaniyat Islands, Oman, at an underwater rock about 15 minutes before the first island. It is rated beginner and the maximum depth is about 24 m.
The dive starts at about 7 m, and you swim along the wall either north or south, depending on the current. To the north the route crosses a sand chute and follows the wall to a small plateau at 22 to 24 m. Turning south, you swim along the wall and then over sand and coral blocks. The walls and the plateau are loosely covered with blue coral bushes, some soft corals and small sponges.
Look down to the sand, where leopard sharks, lemon sharks or rays are sometimes found.
