MARHABALIVE THE STORIES YOU’D LOVE TO TELL

Discover Musandam on board a luxurious traditional Omani dhow, and cruise the

iconic routes of ancient Arabian mariners, who sailed through the Gulf of Oman

and Strait of Hormuz seeking trade and fortune. Witness the beauty of the

Musandam fjords, quaint fishing villages and crystal clear azure waters of

one of the world’s most famous dive sites, set against the dramatic and rugged

backdrop of the Al Hajar Mountains.

DHAHAB WAS DESIGNED AND HANDCRAFTED IN 2013 to reflect Omani sailing dhows famously used in the region

centuries ago. Dhahab means ‘gold’ in Arabic, and the vessel is

indeed reminiscent of the golden age of sailing, yet is fitted out

with all the modern comforts. From bow to stern, this beautifully

carved cruiser is furnished in a relaxed artisan style, specifically

handmade to complement the villa décor at Six Senses Zighy Bay.

COMFORTABLY ACCOMMODATING UP TO SIX GUESTS, Dhahab offers a well-appointed spacious king bed cabin and two

twin bed cabins on the lower-ground deck. You will indeed feel

like royalty in the king bed cabin, which is furnished with a large

bathroom equipped with an oval bathtub, moonlight windows,

spacious shower room, twin vanities, writing desk, and a lounging

sofa in a reading corner that can be set-up for an additional guest.

HUG THE COVES AND ENJOY THE REFUGE OF SILENCE along the glistening waters of Haffa, Sanat, Lima, Khor Kabahl

and Khor Habaleen. High above ground, the Al Hajar Mountain

Range, one of the few places on the planet where earth’s mantle

has broken through, showcases green ophiolites, which are part

of the earth’s crust, visible from the surface. Deep below the wa-

ters, the Gulf of Oman is one of the most famous dive sites in the

world, a haven for sea creatures and thousands of colorful corals.

WHETHER RELAXING ON THE UPPER DECKS, enjoying

a movie in the private lounge, sunbathing, swimming, kayaking

or snorkeling, the crew will ensure a seamless experience throughout

your voyage. Bespoke diving experiences for all levels are available

upon request, and wellness massages may be booked when required

from the resort to soothe weary muscles after a day of adventure.

For diving and wellness massages, please refer to the Terms and Conditions.

ITINERARY

DAY 1

Your odyssey begins as the early dew greets the morning and after

a refreshing breakfast at the Spice Market. From Zighy Marina,

Dhahab will cruise to Haffa and Sanat Bays. Listen to the legends

of local folklore from the experienced crew as you take in the white

limestone rock and discover the myth of the dinosaur footprint.

Leaving Sanat, you’ll cruise along Lima Bay to anchor in Khor Kabahl

for lunch where you’ll spend the afternoon swimming, kayaking,

snorkeling, fishing or taking a leisurely speedboat tour along the

majestic fjords.

After a sumptuous dinner on deck prepared by your private chef,

there’s just time for a little stargazing before your overnight stay.

DAY 2

Wake up to sun salutations during a morning yoga session on

the upper deck. Book a bespoke dive experience to explore the

colorful corals and communicate with the various sea creatures at

one of the world’s most upcoming dive sites for both beginners

and advanced divers. And after all that activity, why not request

a wellness massage to ease your weary muscles? An experienced

Six Senses Spa Zighy Bay therapist will be escorted from the resort

to you via speedboat. You’ll also have plenty of leisure time to

enjoy swimming or fishing. For Yoga, wellness massages and diving,

please refer to the Terms and Conditions.

DAY 3

After a delicious breakfast, you’ll leave for Khor Habaleen bay,

passing quaint fishing villages along the way and enjoying the

fresh breeze of Musandam to keep you cool as you sunbathe on the

upper decks. Learn about local culinary traditions with a cookery

class, and relax over a gourmet lunch before cruising back to

Zighy Marina for Six Senses Zighy Bay.

This sample itinerary offers a basic outline of the expedition and

activities offered. The crew will stay at your service on board at all

times, and can happily tailor activities to suit your individual

lunches and alfresco dinners. Dhahab’s Chef De Cuisine designs

special dietary requirements. Meals are prepared from fresh

organic ingredients and include both international and local fare,

as well as the catch of the day. Morning and afternoon snacks are

EXPERIENCE

Divers rave about the Musandam Peninsula, which is renowned

for some of the best dive sites in the world. Dhahab offers a

tailor-made dive experience for novices and experts alike. If you

prefer above-water activities, you can tour the fjords in a

speedboat, enjoy the kayaks (both single and twin), do a spot of

snorkeling or hand line fishing, or perfect your waterskiing

technique. There is a wide selection of games, and a relaxing
