Hike to Wadi Shab
Meet your tour guide at the seaport, hotel or airport and take a fascinating car trip along the Omani coast towards the town of Sur. In 1.5-2 hours, arrive at the top of the oasis and park the car in the parking lot of Wadi Shab.
Enjoy a short ferry in a motorboat through a reservoir of clear turquoise water.
Walk for 45-60 minutes along the gorge, admiring the surrounding nature, along cliffs, fruit plantations and pools.
Arrive at the place where the hiking path ends, and the path for swimming begins, which is optional. Reach the fairly deep pool, where there is an entrance to a wonderful cave with an amazing waterfall.
Visit the lake Bimmah Sinkhole which is the most magnificent karst lake in the whole world. According to local tenets, it was in this place that the stars fell and formed a funnel with dimensions of 50 by 70 meters and a depth of 20 meters. It is essential. The excursion involves the passage through the gorge.
