Things to do in Oman.

Sultanate of Oman is a country well known as much for its rich history, natural wealth, and unique culture, as it is for its diverse geography and varied climatic conditions. Here is a range of activities to choose from that suit your interests and fulfill your passions. Discover what you can experience when visiting the Sultanate.

  • Nature & Adventure: Oman is the land of adventures, starting from exploring the Hoota Cave, going through the experience of zip-lining in Musandam Governorate, as well as hiking on mountain trails in the Riam Walkway or through metal wires in Wadi Bani Auf. Also, diving into the depths of the ocean to enjoy seeing colorful coral reefs and rare fish in the Daymaniyat Islands, sailing in kayaks, sailboats, and jet skis, to camping under the star-studded sky in the sands of the East. All of this confirms a truly memorable visit, encompassing adventure in every sense of the word. The diverse landscapes of the country and the varied tourism patterns it offers contribute to making your visit to Oman truly meaningful and unique. Witnessing the towering rocky mountains with green terraced fields built by early Omanis, attending camel races on the fringes of the desert, or riding camels, observing sea turtles as they lay their eggs and head towards the sea and even swimming in the clear waters of flowing wadis (valleys) are experiences that make your journey an endless delight.

  • Leisure: Oman offers a wealth of leisure and entertainment activities that cater to a broad range of interests and age groups. Visitors can unwind in lush parks and gardens scattered across the governorates, providing tranquil spaces for relaxation and family outings. The country’s modern commercial complexes offer vibrant shopping and dining experiences, blending contemporary conveniences with traditional Omani charm. For those seeking a blend of cultural and educational entertainment, attending events like Muscat Nights is a must. This festival showcases a rich tapestry of Omani culture, including folk arts, traditional crafts, and local cuisine, providing both enjoyment and insight into Omani heritage. The Khareef Dhofar events in the southern part of Oman offer a unique opportunity to experience autumnal celebrations amidst the region’s lush landscapes. Additionally, Oman’s commitment to preserving its history and heritage is exemplified by the Royal Opera House Muscat. Located in Shati Al-Qurm, this prestigious venue hosts world-class performances by renowned artists, offering a blend of traditional and modern arts.
