We have dived with Al Boom at the Dubai Mall and found them to be great with us. Although we are OWD we are both fairly novice, fair weather divers so probably need a bit more attention than more experienced divers. The shop on site is pretty well stocked and the 2 tank dive included gear was about £50. On... More

I have dove with Al Boom on three occasions now. Once in Dec '09 at the Aquarium in the Dubai Mall, the second time in Dec '11 in Fujairah and the third time Jan '12 also in Fujairah. The Aquaium dive is cool diving in a big fish bowl with tons of charismatic fauna swimming around you. The guide was... More

During our recent stay in Fujairah we hired snorkeling gear vfrom Al Boom and these guys are just fantastic. The staff are incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. Although we snorkeled alone they provided us with all of the information we needed and some pointers, a very professional company! We were so happy with them that we will be back in a... More

I went to Fujairah for a short dive trip (2 days, 4 dives) . I've reached the Al Aqah resort from Dubai. The hotel is very nice, with excellent facilities. I've easily found the Diving Center and I appreciated the professionality and courtesy of the people in the office. On the first day, we went to famous wrecks in the... More

Prior to booking diving experience with Al Boom, I have read mixed reviews but decided to risk. I do not regret my decision but equally, it has not provided mind blowing trip the other Diving places had provided me with (Kenya, Egypt). I have obtained the information on the options from Al Boom over the email with prompt responses to... More

I’ve recently completed my PADI Advanced Open Water Course with Al Boom and to be fair what impressed me most about their service, is their ability to offer such a broad selection of dives. 2 of my dives were completed on the Dubai coast, 2 dives over on the East Coast (with transportation provided).… and my fifth dive was in...

I’ve dived with Al Boom on a number of occasions in Fujairah, Jebel Ali and Dibba and have no complaints whatsoever! The staff members at the dive resorts are both friendly and helpful and the dive masters and instructors on board are knowledgeable and safety conscious, giving a full brief both before and after the dives. I am currently doing... More

Having been diving in Dibba, Fujeirah many times in recent months me and my buddy decided we wanted a change of scenery and agreed to drive over to Musandam to check out the scenery and go on a coupe of dives.

Hi there We are truly sorry to hear about this mix up and of course you will be refunded. Please just drop me an email to abdiving@emirates.net.ae.

Hi Niamh We always value feedback and thank you for letting us know your experience. I can assure you that this is not the normal service that you can expect from Al Boom Diving.
