Oman: Updates & Travel

Travel in Oman

  • Oman has much to offer for travelers and expats alike. With its long deserted beaches, safaris through a wadi, ancient forts and impressive camel rides through the desert. Those who want to travel around the country had better arrange a car, though.
  • Go into the desert on a camel and visit extraordinary desert rocks.
  • Visit endless sand dunes and sleep in a Bedouin tent.
  • The country is very safe, for example it is normal to leave cars on when shopping, for air conditioning.
  • Sleeping on the beach or in the desert is very normal.
  • The island of Masirah. This island is the site of wild camping by many tourists. The starry sky seems to give off so much light that you could easily read a book there in the moonlight.
  • Sharqiya province lies to the east and is the most visited by tourists. Beautiful examples of sand dunes, oases and beaches.
  • The capital Muscat is located on beautiful bay, has a dynamic souq and Portuguese forts.
  • Nizwa fortress is a 17th-century fortress and is an hour and a half drive from Muscat.
  • Empty Quarter, Roeb al-Geli, is one of the largest sand dunes in the world.
  • The second city of Omanios Salalah and is best known for how green it gets here during winter.
