Bimmah Sinkhole - We leave Muscat and head towards Hawiyyat Najm, also known as Bimmah Sinkhole in English. This water-filled depression, a sinkhole, is located in the limestone of eastern Muscat Governorate in Oman, near the Al Sharqiyah region, just off the highway to Sur.
Bimmah Sinkhole - Next, we drive to Fins. Fins Beach is notable for its stunning cliffs. The beach becomes even more beautiful at sunset, with thousands of hues reflecting on the waves.
Wadi Shab - We then continue our drive to Wadi Shab, a vast canyon gorge lined with palm trees and showcasing the power of water descending from the mountains. After a 35-minute hike through the canyon, we reach one of several crystal-clear water pools. Visitors can swim through the warm waters from pool to pool, eventually reaching the last pool where an opening among the large rocks allows us to swim into a breathtaking crevice cave with a small waterfall. Inside, sunlight filters in, turning the water a stunning turquoise blue while water cascades down one side of the cave from the wadi beyond. After our time at Wadi Shab, we continue our drive to the hotel in Ras Al Hadd.
