Our Local Experts say:

Oman boasts some of the longest beaches in the Middle East.  In fact, there is over 1,700km of coastline stretching from the northern tip all the way to the south.

Many Omani communities are draped around the coastal areas. Recently, hotel operators have been quick to snap up unbuilt areas for development. Most beaches are kept very clean and some offer excellent beach combing opportunities.
