It is a country of infinite and jaw-dropping deserts, with one of the most popular being the Wahiba Sands.

There are also historic and stunning castles, such as those in Sur, which is also known as a spot where mother turtles lay their eggs once a year. Bahla Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, should also be part of your itinerary. There are also many secluded beaches, making it an ideal escape for anyone who loves the ocean.
