What to expect

Half Day Dhow Cruise to Khor Sham & Mountain Safari to Jebel Harim

Experience the Beauty of Musandam by Sea and Land

Dhow Cruise to Khor Sham – A Journey Through the Fjords
Set sail on a traditional Omani dhow and immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty of Musandam’s fjords. Our half-day cruise takes you into the serene waters of Khor Sham, where dramatic cliffs rise from the sea and playful dolphins often greet visitors along the way.

As we glide through the crystal-clear waters, the dhow will anchor near the famous Telegraph Island—a historical British outpost nestled in the heart of the fjord. Here, you can snorkel and swim among vibrant coral reefs and diverse marine life. The tranquility of the sea, the splash of colorful fish, and the backdrop of rugged mountains create an unforgettable moment of serenity and connection with nature.

Guests are provided with snorkeling equipment and life jackets, ensuring both safety and comfort throughout the cruise. To enhance your experience, refreshments will be served on board while you relax and take in the scenic surroundings.

Swimming and snorkeling in the calm waters of Khor Sham is not just a joy for the body—it's a balm for the soul.
Mountain Safari to Jebel Harim – A 4x4 Adventure Above the Clouds
After your cruise, shift gears and embark on a thrilling 4WD mountain safari to Jebel Harim, Musandam’s highest peak at over 6,000 feet above sea level. From Khasab, we’ll ascend into the rugged mountains in a private 4x4, making stops at scenic viewpoints that offer panoramic vistas of the surrounding landscapes.

One of the highlights of the journey is a visit to the remote mountain village of Sayah, home to Bedouin communities who continue to live traditionally amid the dramatic cliffs and valleys. The route is lined with ancient fossils and rock formations—evidence of Musandam’s geological history.

This safari is a perfect blend of natural wonder, cultural insight, and off-road excitement.
