This is a place that I would highly recommend visiting for any nature lover living in Oman. You will spend at least 5 hours driving there from Muscat, so plan your escape well.
Our second trip to Salalah to visit few places that we missed during our 2019 Khareef trip.
Lots of wadis/canyons to explore north of Salalah. No descriptions, you are on your own…
About 30 mins away from Salalah there is a nice camping spot with few lookouts. Here is the location. It is possible to go all the way down and explore the wadi further.
Port of Salah is the largest port in Oman. The port operates both a container terminal and a general cargo terminal, and serves the local and regional community including humanitarian assistance to Yemen.
What a great destination for a day trip from Salalah? On the way to Shaat you can also stop at Fazayah beach and Mughsail. There are 3 highlights to enjoy here: the lookouts, hidden beach, and sinkhole.
About 1 hour away from Salalah there is a beautiful cliff and beach (Efftalqut). A short, but requiring 4×4, drive from the beach you can spot an abandoned ship. Quite a surreal view.
Persian steps is a section of the trail that’s used for sport competitions as it leads directly to Jebel Akhdar.
As the region received plenty of rain few weeks before, the area was blooming with flowers and green – an unusual sight for Muscat.
picturesque drive, easy to access and follow, lots of nice picnic spots
