Dive Information

Wadi Lahami Village is a PADI Five Star Dive Resort, offering a full range of PADI courses and catering to divers of all levels. Guests can enjoy up to four dives per day—typically two guided Zodiac trips to sites in the Fury Shoals in the morning, followed by up to two unguided afternoon dives if booked in advance. Orientation dives are conducted on the day after arrival, except in exceptional cases where early arrangements are made. Divers who haven’t dived in over a year—or those switching certification bodies—are required to complete a DSMB review dive for safety before diving independently.

The reefs of Fury Shoals are celebrated for their diverse topography—including coral gardens, canyons, swim‑throughs, pinnacles, wrecks, and walls—making it ideal for both beginners and experienced drift divers alike. Equipment rentals are available onsite, including BCD, wetsuits, dive computer, regulator, mask, fins, torch, and more. Air fills and equipment servicing are provided as needed. Conservation-conscious divers will appreciate that Wadi Lahami Village is a Green Fins partner, operating with sustainable diving practices in mind.
