Introducing Sur
With an attractive corniche, two forts, excellent beaches nearby and a long history of dhow-building, there is much to commend Sur to the visitor. In addition to its attractions, Sur is a convenient base for day trips to Wadi Tiwi and Wadi Shab, the turtle reserve at Ras al-Jinz and the desert camps of the Sharqiya Sands.
