All Camel Dive Club diving and snorkeling trips continue to run as normal. Today we have approximately 35 guests diving with us, with boats departing for daily diving at

best season for diving and, with uncrowded dive sites, our divers are spotting on a daily basis
manta rays, hammerheads and other sharks! See our
Facebook page for news of our latest sightings.
