Muscat Divers are pleased to announce that we have teamed up with The Great Marine Project in Malaysia to promote turtle and coral conservation.
The Great Marine Project is a collection of unique marine sites in the world that require our marine studies and monitoring in order to effect
positive change in the way the marine wilderness is managed in the future.
The project is run by WOX, an international environmental and social projects management company based in Malaysia, Mauritius, India and the UK.
The aim of WOX is to create meaningful experiences through endangered species conservation and operating in a responsible and ethical manner,
creating positive benefits to the destinations it works in.
The Great Marine Project would like to invite you, and a group of your friends to the Perhentian Islands, Malaysia to join in with turtle and coral conservation.
By day you will dive and if you come as a group you will get the chance to build and name your very own artificial reef then transplant stressed coral onto it.
By night protect highly endangered mother green turtles while they nest on our beach.
What better way to spend your time than to dive with a purpose by day and protect nesting mother turtles by night. For more information Click Here
Closer to home I am really happy to be able to tell you that our "new" boat is on the water.
Ahlan al Muna seats 10 fully equipped divers in considerably more comfort than our old boats, moves a lot quicker ,
and is one heck of a lot easier in bumpy water. At a pinch we can get 12 divers on her, which is what is she is licensed for,
but as a rule I think we'll stick to 10.
It will certainly make diving a lot easier and more comfortable and I hope as many members as possible will come along and give her a try.
We will be keeping Boat 1, and Boats 2 & 3 are going to be sold.
If any member is interested or knows of anyone that might be interested, please get in touch.
