Taking a boat trip in the fjords of Musandam is an activity not to be missed. Tourists take this tour by dhow, a traditional boat, and head to the breathtaking landscapes of the fjords. During this excursion, several stops are made at various areas to admire the panorama or swim. After that, the boat will meet the dolphins while keeping a safe perimeter to avoid disturbing them too much.
For thrill-seekers, a Jeep ride in the Musandam Mountains promises an adrenaline rush like no other. These rugged terrains, inaccessible by standard vehicles, offer a heart-pounding adventure with every turn. As a reward, there is an extraordinary view of Khor Al Najd in the Gulf of Oman, wadis teeming with fossils and animals, and the majestic Jebel Harim mountain, the highest peak in Musandam.
The next visit can be to Khasab, the capital of Musandam province. Even though this city is small, it still has some interesting sites that should not be missed. First of all, there is the fort, which must be seen. It was built by the Portuguese in 1643 and then recently restored in 2007. Visitors will find a museum and above all they will be able to enjoy the beautiful views from the tower. Then there is Khmazera Castle, which is relatively small but very beautiful, mainly because of its lovely views from the terrace. For those who want to see another castle, the one in Bukha is very good. It was built in the 16th century and has been well preserved. Finally, for a little shopping trip, there is nothing like walking in the souq to discover the small shops. ◄
