Reef Oasis Diving Center

Fujairah, United Arab Emirates

The team at Reef Oasis Diving Center are the kind of people you want to dive with. They’re based in Fujairah, and we’ve always found their operation to be exceptionally well-run, professional, but still laid-back enough that you genuinely feel like you’re diving with friends. Our pick for a perfect afternoon dive with them is usually a trip out to Dibba Rock. You’ll often find us opting for their morning trips, though, especially if we’re looking to hit a few different spots like Inchcape 1 or Martini Rock. We love the local knowledge the dive guides bring; they know exactly where that shy moray tends to hide or where the resident clownfish have set up shop. The water often has this surprising clarity, particularly between October and May, and the calm conditions are perfect for those longer bottom times. They’re a PADI 5 Star centre, so whether you’re just starting out or looking to advance your skills, you’re in good hands. We’d suggest booking ahead, especially for weekend trips, as they can get busy – a testament to their solid reputation.
