After leaving Al Amarat, the road winds into the Eastern Hajar Mountains, revealing one of Oman’s most stunning landscapes. Towering cliffs, deep valleys, and rugged ridges surround you in every direction. These ancient rocks, rich in dark minerals, are part of a rare geological wonder—fragments of oceanic crust pushed above ground over 90 million years ago. As you ascend, the dramatic scenery unfolds: layers of rock shaped by time, narrow mountain passes, and panoramic views that stretch for miles. Despite the arid terrain, acacia trees and desert shrubs bring touches of life to the rocky slopes. It's a journey through deep time and natural beauty, where every curve offers a new perspective. This route is not just a passage—it's a moving experience through the very bones of Oman’s earth.
After descending from Al Amarat, the road opens to a stunning coastal landscape where towering cliffs meet the turquoise sea. On one side, rugged mountains rise dramatically; on the other, the Gulf of Oman stretches endlessly. The drive is a perfect blend of raw nature and peaceful beauty. You'll pass winding bends, hidden beaches, and small fishing villages, with the sea often just meters from your vehicle. The contrast between the dark rocks and the shimmering water creates unforgettable scenery. Occasional acacia trees and grazing goats add life to the roadside, while fishermen work calmly along the shore. The sea breeze, the sound of waves, and the ever-changing light make this drive one of Oman’s most scenic. It’s not just a roa ! it’s a moving journey between mountains and ocean.
Bimmah Sinkhole is one of Oman’s most stunning natural wonders—a deep, turquoise pool nestled in a limestone crater between the sea and the mountains. Formed by a natural collapse of the earth’s surface, the sinkhole is around 20 meters deep and 50 meters wide, surrounded by dramatic rock walls and palm trees. The crystal-clear water shifts in color from emerald green to deep blue, inviting visitors to swim, relax, or simply take in the view. Local legend says the sinkhole was created by a falling star, giving it the name “Hawiyyat Najm,” or “The Star’s Crater.” Located just off the coastal road between Muscat and Sur, it’s easy to access through a well-maintained park with steps leading down to the water. A visit to Bimmah Sinkhole is a refreshing stop ! perfect for photos, a quick dip, or quiet reflection in a surreal and peaceful setting
