Mermaid Diving Center - Rixos The Palm - Dubai

Dubai & Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates

Mermaid Diving Center, based out of Rixos The Palm, focuses on getting divers PADI certified and comfortable in the water. We've found their instructors approachable, making them a solid choice for those taking their first fins-on steps or looking to advance to the next level. They also run trips to local sites, often heading out to explore the artificial reefs and wrecks that dot the waters around Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Expect to see plenty of smaller reef fish and perhaps a turtle or two. It’s a convenient option if you’re staying at the resort and keen to get some dives in without traveling far.
