Morning Dolphin Tour Khasab | Best Time for Wildlife
The early bird catches the worm—or in this case, sees the most dolphins! Our Morning Dolphin Tour departs early when the fjords are at their calmest and the lighting is soft and magical, making it an absolute dream for photographers. Marine life is typically most active in the early hours of the day before the afternoon winds pick up. Glide through the glassy turquoise waters of Khor Sham and enjoy peaceful, uncrowded encounters with Musandam's famous humpback and bottlenose dolphins.
