Full Day East and West (4WD only)

Begin the day to the east of Dhofar at Ain Razat, a collection of natural springs, some of which are perennial and others of which are seasonal and only appear during Khareef (monsoon season). This location is also popular all year round and serves as one of Salalah’s primary water sources. Following that, we will travel to Taqah, one of the coastal towns in Dhofar Governorate. Taqah is an ancient town and fishing village with an intriguing castle. Watchtowers and stone houses surround the castle. The rooms inside the castle are filled with antique jewelry, weapons, furniture, paintings, and everyday items that make the castle inhabitable. Continue to Khor Rori Creek, the site of the ruined city Sumhuram and the capital of ancient Arabia’s frankincense trade. Sumhuram Museum / Archaeological Park is one of the components of the Land of Frankincense designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is situated in the ancient city of Khor Rori, where the frankincense and copper trade flourished. The first place to go is Ain Garziz, which was one of the springs in the Dhofar region. Drive to have a photo stop at the viewpoint near the Nabi Ayoub location where they can see beautiful landscapes and mountains. Following our visit to the historical site, we will travel to Al Mughsail Beach, which is known for its blowholes. Al Mughsail Beach is a must-see in the Dhofar Region. Seawater rushes with high pressure through an underground channel and shoots out in a geyser-like eruption on the cliff. The spout can reach heights of several meters in response to the forces of the waves. End of the trip.
