Things to Do in Oman

1.Shop at Muttrah Souq

Whenever you visit Oman for a leisurely escape, it is recommended to add Muttrah Souq to your travel list. This is not only a market but also gives you an amazing travel time experience. Whether this is a stack of traditional baskets or merely a gorgeous moment spent enjoying the smell of bhukoor, you will never be disappointed at what you will find here. Souq opens early in the morning, but the clever decision is to visit this market after 4:00 PM and stay until sunset. It is the time when the lights start shining and the Corniche before them reflects the light on the sea. If you love drawing, take a pencil, crayons, and a notebook to sketch your special moments.

2.Explore the Off-Road Trails

Off-road driving is very common in Oman, and is even necessary to reach the most stunning destinations. The country has an excellent infrastructure that makes 4x4 adventures really worth the hype. Hike up to plateaus, cross the wadis, and camp out in the stars, either on a low-cost or luxury basis. Additionally, you can visit desert landscapes, mountain trails, and coastal regions on the same trip and have a different experience every day. Be it travelling individually or with friends or a family, exploring the off-road trails is a one-of-a-kind experience that lingers in your mind even if you return home. So, try this activity on your tour.

3.Head to Jebel Shams

Jebel Shams is another thrilling place to explore in Oman. Go on a tour to Jebel Shams and visit the specific vantage points to have magnificent views of the canyon, which is commonly referred to as the Grand Canyon of Arabia. The stunning elevations on the mountain tracks, including the Jebel Shams Balcony Walk, are going to make you dizzy. At the summit, the views of Wadi Ghul are exotic. You can rest yourself by simply lying there. There are also traditional villages in Jebel Shams where you can observe ancient buildings and get to learn about the way people live there. This location is ideal in terms of observing the splendid scenes of sunrise in a calm atmosphere.

4.Hang Out with Camels

If you want to know the rich Bedouin culture of Oman, the best way to experience it is by hanging out with camels. Camels are friendly, docile, and inquisitive in nature, and you will love spending time with these lovely creatures. Learn about the historical and cultural significance of camels, which have been a crucial part of local life for centuries. Adding more to this, you can also enjoy unique photo opportunities and mesmerising views while riding on camels. Camel trekking provides you with the wonderful encounters of the country in a more immersive manner. Picture yourself watching idyllic sunsets from the camel’s back. It sounds adventurous.

5.Wander Wakan Village

About 2000 meters up in the Hajar Mountains is the Wakan Village. Wander through this stunning historic mountain-top village during your Omani trip for a real local life experience. You can easily get to this location by a narrow, four-wheel drive track. There are terraced gardens, hikes, a cafe, date palms, and exceptional views over Wadi Mistal below that will blow your mind. As you walk through the village, it takes you along an ancient falaj stream, which also offers longer hikes in case you’re still energetic. Whether you’re in pursuit of a peaceful getaway from city life or an adventurous experience, the Wakan Village has something surprising for you.

6.Wild Camp Anywhere

To make your Omani trip even more adventurous, make sure to wild camp anywhere. It is not only legal but also widely accessible, letting tourists like you indulge in the splendid beauty of the country, including deserts, mountains, and beaches. What is really recommended is to camp in remote areas to experience some fabulous encounters, some of which include seeing camels in the desert, watching goats on mountains and a lot of others. Wild camping gives immense freedom and closeness to nature as well, making your holiday experience more than fulfilling. It is one of the great activities you must include in your list of the greatest things to do in Oman.

7.Float in the Bimmah Sinkhole

Bimmah Sinkhole is one of the marvellous natural sights in Oman. The sinkhole is a large natural pool of idyllic turquoise water, as a result of freshwater mixing with the salty Arabian Sea. Locals usually call it ‘The Falling Star Park’ or ‘Hawiyat Najam Park,’ after the legend that it was created by a meteorite. Another great activity that you must include in your Oman tour is floating in this sinkhole. It is a rejuvenating experience that incorporates the feeling of swimming in slightly salty water and the additional tickling of small fish biting your feet. The water is cold and pleasant enough to soothe your mind and body, and is worth it for your trip.

8.Try Snorkelling or Diving

Snorkelling and diving are some of the adrenaline activities to be experienced in Oman. There are a lot of marine animals inhabiting the waters of this place, such as turtles, whale sharks, and many different kinds of reef fish, with a dramatic background of underwater landscape. Be you are a novice or a skilled diver; the Aquatic world of Oman is guaranteed to be a memorable experience. When you dive in the water and the colourful fish and coral reefs surround you, flowing over your head, it is really an amazing feeling. You simply can’t resist admiring the scenic beauty of the crystal-clear waters. Notable areas are the Ad Dimaniyat Islands and more.

9.Marvel at an Omani Sunset

When you have an opportunity to fly to Oman after you finish your pilgrimage to Umrah, it is a good idea to be amazed by an Omani Sunset. This is the way you can be enthralled with breathtaking scenery in distinctive places, like the coast of the Musandam Peninsula, or a boat trip to the Pacific Gulf of Oman. As the sun goes down on the glittering scenery of the country, it is an actual eye show because the entire sky turns orange, red, yellow, pink, blue and violet. You can take the love of your life to Oman for such an exciting experience to spend quality time together and cherish great moments. It is something that sticks in your mind and heart forever.

10.Go to Wadi Dayqah Dam

Wadi Dayqah Dam was built in 2012 and is home to the largest dam in Oman. Over an hour drive south of Muscat, this location is host to a splendid blue-green park lake, picnic areas, a park, and even public bathrooms, which are very rare. If you’ve children with you during your tour, it is an ideal choice to go to Wadi Dayqah Dam to picnic and have lunch together. The breathtaking views of the water against the rugged mountains make it a relaxing escape, for sure. Not only this, but there are also well-maintained paths that let you stroll through the area and enjoy spectacular views with your loved ones in a more thrilling manner, which is amazing.

Places to Visit in Oman

1. Bahla

Bahla should be on top of your travel list in Oman. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that has profound historical significance as a centre for traditional pottery making using mud kilns. You can browse handicrafts, rugs, jewellery, and other items at the Bahla Old Souq. Make sure to visit Jabreen Castle, which is a short drive away from the city. This site is a great point of attraction because of its many rooms, intricately latticed windows, painted ceilings, reception areas, and a date storeroom. This is how you will be able to get the most out of your Omani trip.

2. Nizwa

If you’re looking for ways to delve into the strong religious and cultural heritage of Oman at the same time, head to Nizwa. It has been the capital city of the country, where the minarets and domes of the mosque rise over sand-cloured buildings surrounded by the Hajar Mountains. You should go to a traditional market here, where you can find silver crafts, spices, and dates. A surprising thing about Nizwa is that a weekly animal market is held here on each Friday. You can go here to take your vacation experience to another level by watching unique animal species.

3. Muscat

Marvel at the effortlessly charming capital of Oman, Muscat. This city perfectly blends traditional charm with modern attractions while offering captivating natural landscapes and rich cultural experiences.

You can balance city sights with so many outdoor activities, like a trip to the Qurum beach or a Dhow cruise along the coast. Enjoy in malls, restaurants, and take in the great architecture of the city.

4. Sharqiya Sands

No trip to Oman is complete without a tour to Sharqiya Sands, the undulating dunes of the desert. When heading to this location, you will be surrounded by desert vegetation in a seemingly infinite landscape that feels like crafted out of gold when the sun is low in the sky. You can experience most of these sands with various thrilling activities, some of which include sandboarding, dune bashing, and traditional camel rides. Stay overnight in a camp to enjoy incredible stargazing with no light pollution at all. Every moment here is truly worth the hype.

5. Jebel Akhdar

At 2980 meters up in the Hajar Mountains is Jebel Akhdar, one of the most beautiful places you should see in Oman. You will find quiet villages and slopes covered with terraced farms and orchards of apples, apricots, peaches, and walnuts when wandering through this wonderful location. Jebel Akhdar is generally cooler than several other coastal areas, like Muscat. This is what makes it an ideal spot to escape the intense heat, particularly in the summer season. Be it travelling individually or with a family, ensure to head to this place for an amazing experience.
