Another first for us, as we document our first location in the country of Oman. This resort solely dedicated for divers looks very similar to the beach where the azure window (in Malta) is located. And from our research so far, this song below from the Tamil movie Kandhasamy is the only movie where the dive resort & restaurant has been used as a filming location.

About the location (from here):
Oman Dive Center is the oldest dive center in Oman. Founded in 1989, it was run as a dive club for several years and has undergone remarkable changes to become what it is today. In 2004 Oman Dive Center was taken over by Extra Divers Worldwide and was transformed into the only “eco dive resort” of Oman – in fact the only one in the Middle East!

Under the Extra Divers Management, Oman Dive Center became a professional dive resort. New facilities including a storage area for diving gear, rinsing pools and changing rooms were built for the dive center. In the dive school, teaching facilities were improved to include two fully equipped classrooms with audiovisual material for the students. The urge for accommodation was clear from the beginning. Thirty bungalows were built directly on the beach beside the dive center and, later on, the building which was previously used as the dive club cafeteria was turned into the Odyssey Restaurant.
