Why Visit Oman
Oman has more UNESCO-listed ancient falaj irrigation systems and fortified settlements than almost any other country in the Arabian Peninsula, reflecting a rich and unbroken history.
The Wahiba Sands (Sharqiyah Sands) offer classic Arabian dune camping and camel trekking within a few hours of Muscat.
The southern Dhofar region around Salalah transforms into a lush green monsoon paradise during the Khareef season, a dramatic contrast to the rest of the country.
The Musandam Peninsula — Oman's northern enclave — features dramatic fjord-like khor inlets navigable by traditional dhow, earning it the nickname "Norway of Arabia".
