Musandam

Introducing Musandam

Separated from the rest of Oman by the east coast of the UAE, and guarding the southern side of the strategically important Strait of Hormuz, the Musandam Peninsula is a land of beautiful khors, small villages and dramatic, mountain-hugging roads. No longer difficult to reach, this beautiful peninsula with its cultural eccentricities is well worth a visit if you’re on an extended tour of Oman, or if you’re after a taste of the wilderness from Dubai. A boat trip is a must, as this is the only way to see the best of the area.
