Dive Trips
Al Boom Diving offers different dive trips to suit all levels of divers. The coast around Dubai is filled with spectacular wrecks, some of which were intentionally sunk to create new habitats for marine life. Some of the wrecks date back to the 1960s and all make for very interesting insights in to the nautical history of the area.
The East Coast provides some of the best diving available in the U.A.E. Natural coral reefs flourish at coastal dive sites, supporting ample marine life, not only in variety but also numbers.
Musandam offers some of the most spectacular diving around the Arabian Peninsula.
Dive Sites in Dubai: Zainab - 10 metres, Anchor Barge - 25 metres, Hopper Barge - 25 metres, Sheikh Mohammed Barge (SMB)/ Derrick Barge (DB1) - 23 metres, Cement Barge - 12 metres, Neptune - 25 metres

Diving on the East Coast
The East Coast dives are completely different to those offered in the rest of the U.A.E. In contrast to the phenomenal wreck dives on the West Coast, the East Coast has diverse coral reefs aplenty, all of which are filled with marine life, from small blennies to black-tip reef sharks.
Dive Sites on the East Coast: Martini Rock and Shark Island - 17-25 metres, Inchcape 1 - 30 metres, and Inchcape 2 - 22 metres, Dibba Rock - 14 metres, Sharm Rocks - 12 metres
