This dive trip had been canceled 3 times due to rough waters, high winds, and cold water. But with perseverance, we finally completed our two days of diving at the well known Dimanayat Islands Protected Reserve located about half way between Sohar &amp; Muscat.&nbsp;<br \/>\nUnderwater sea life was abundant as we dove down to about 12 meters. Down there we saw a wide array of colorful see life, including sea turtles, sting rays, large cuttlefish, colorful coral gardens, and much more.&nbsp;<br \/>\nThanks to Oman Sail Dive Center for their high quality instruction and guidance, this outdoor educational experience was a huge success, and we can now congratulate 10 new G8 PADI certified divers (with one more to be certified hopefully soon)!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2016\/05\/img_0634-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"http:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2016\/05\/img_0634-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-129974 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2016\/05\/img_0634-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2016\/05\/img_0634-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2016\/05\/img_0634-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2016\/05\/img_0634-1-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2016\/05\/img_0634-1-510x382.jpg 510w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1000px;
