Detailed itinerary

1

Ayn Khor Waterfall is a true testament to nature’s artistry, tucked away amidst the rugged terrains of Salalah. As you embark on the journey to this picturesque destination, the anticipation of witnessing this natural marvel grows with every step.

The journey itself is an experience, with winding trails that lead you through date palm groves, rocky paths, and occasional glimpses of the surrounding landscapes.

an great Experience to have an amazing time at Eftalquot Viewpoint around 170 Meters above Sea Level , one of hidden Gems Places in Salalah to enjoy the real Khareef Season in Salalah

3

Al Mughsayl Beach (also written as Al Mughsail Beach) is probably the most famous tourist attraction in Dhofar, Oman. The beach is liked by the locals and tourists alike.

Al Mughsayl is a long stretch of blue water sea and white sand. The landscape is pretty nice and the beach has mountains on both the sides, which make the view elegant and photogenic. It’s a perfect picnic spot.

Marneef Cave and Blowholes Salalah , Located in Shatti Al Mughsayl area, which is about 40 km from Salalah in the Governorate of Dhofar, Al Marneef Cave is ranked among the top 10 most popular tourist attractions in the Indian Ocean. It overlooks the Arabian Sea and Al Mughsayl Fountains (which also happens to be the most preferred picnic spot by locals and tourists).
Al Marneef Cave doesn’t qualify as a cave due to the absence of any opening, yet the symbolic cave-like look lets it qualify as a cave. Al Marneef Cave is a large rocky structure which faces a mountain. Several smaller caves are also present on Al Marneef making it a popular rock-climbing spot. Another reason which makes Marneef Cave a popular tourist attraction are Al-Mughsayl Blowholes (natural fountains). There are three of these which are at proximity to Al-Mughsayl Beach. The sound of water gushing through rock cavities and hence emerging out as a natural fountain altogether makes up for a marvellous sight.

Zig Zag Road - Wadi Awafal - Frankincense Tree
After passing Mughsayl with its beautiful beach, the road winds through blasted rocky gorges for about 5km up the mountain. Once you have reached the highest point, you go back down to Wadi Afawal. Immediately after the summit, the view falls on the next uphill climb. And what a one!
