Transport in Sharqiya (Wahiba) Sands - Lonely Planet Travel Information

Getting there & around

To get to the edge of the Sharqiya Sands by public transport, take a Muscat–Sur bus (from Muscat/Sur OR2/1.400) and ask to be dropped off at the Al-Qabil Rest House. It takes three hours from Muscat and 1½ hours from Sur. There are two buses per day in either direction.

The sands run parallel to the Muscat–Sur Hwy and the easiest access into the sands (with your own vehicle) is at Al-Mintirib.
