Catamaran Charter Oman

Catamaran Charter in Oman

Oman and its historical capital Muscat is definitely worth a visit for those how are interested in the Arabian Culture, the beautiful landscapes and the rich marine life.

Unlike other neighbors of Oman you will not see any skyscrapers or Las Vegas-Style tourist attraction. The Omanis are extremely proud of their heritage and wealth has gone into building the infrastructure of the country, to educate its people and to protect the natural beauty.

Besides the lovely beach resorts it is a special experience to explore the coast with a chartered boat. Whether you prefer just a day-trip or a more intensive seven days tour along the thousand miles of coastline along the Indian Ocean, it will be a fantastic opportunity to see the rich marine life.

Discover remote islands, a network of breath-taking fjords which are safe to navigate, and some of the best dive sites and fishing grounds in the world.

The Boat:
This cruising vessel is a Fountaine Pajot Orana 44 Catamaran. Built in 2010, the Orana is a boat synonymous with luxury – the luminous interior comprises a modern galley in a 360 degree panoramic saloon which opens out onto a family seating area – perfect for meals at anchor.
Outside is a cushioned sunbathing deck. A maximum of eight passengers are fitting on the Orana 44. Each of the four cabins aboard enjoys its own private shower room.
The master suite is fitted with an island bed, while the three supplementary cabins have semiisland style beds. The boat is air conditioned throughout.

The catamaran is a vessel stable in all sea-states and has a good turn of speed in the lighter wind conditions of Oman. With twin
engines she can also cruise comfortably under power.

The Skippered Charters are designed for guests with little or no sailing experience. The RYA qualified Skipper will take care of everything and you just have to sit back and enjoy the trip.

For experienced sailors, we can offer Bareboat trips aboard of the catamaran or other cruise vessels in our program. You are able to sail at their own pace and decide on your own route.
