Why Oman Should Be on Your Travel Bucket List? – Explore a Hidden Gem

Many countries in the Middle East have been already explored by tourists. But what about Oman? Some of the travellers don't even know about the existence of such a country in the world, but it's a country that you should go and explore at least once in your life. Here are the reasons!

1

One of the best countries for off-road driving

Many roads in Oman are just perfect for off-road driving, especially the road through Wadi Bani Awf. The steeper the roads get, the better the views they provide. It is truly a joyous experience that shouldn't be missed by adrenaline junkies holidaying in Oman. All you need to have for a perfect drive is a good off-road guidebook since you are not so familiar with these roads and the rules.

2

Their hospitality is amazingly great

If you decide to spend your Omani holiday at one of the Salalah hotels the likes of Al Baleed Resort Salalah by Anantara, you will quickly understand this fact. Omani hospitality is just so amazing, and they are always ready to lend a helping hand even if they don't know you. Even if you go out for a tour and stop by to take a look at the map, you will surely come across an Omani local heading towards you asking whether you need any help.

3

One of the very few places in the world for wild camping

If you are someone who loves camping, then wild camping must be a dream of you. Choose Oman to make your dream a reality because wild camping is legal here. Take your tent with you and pitch it anywhere you want for an amazing experience. Be it the beach, desert, or the mountains, they all provide camping opportunities. But, be kind enough to be a responsible camper by not littering here and there.

Omani beaches are wonderful

Oman is a country that is blessed with a coastline of 1700 kilometres. So, it's not a surprise that this country boasts of some great beaches. Ras al Jinz beach is one such good example, and travellers just love to explore this beach because it's also a turtle-nesting site. Apart from Ras al Jinz beach, you'd come across some other beaches in the country that offer splendid snorkelling and diving opportunities.

5

The Oman desert is great

Most of the people think that Oman is just about deserts. However, Oman offers much more than that because this country is rich with several landscapes, and the desert area is just one of them. The Sharqiya Sands desert area in Oman is one such beautiful region to be explored. Its red dunes and the views will make you fall in love with Oman over and over again.

Oman is peaceful

As mentioned in the beginning, Oman is still new to tourism. Many people still don't know about this hidden gem and they keep travelling to traditional destinations in the world. Omani beaches, mountains, and deserts are thus very peaceful with no big crowds, and this is why you need to visit this destination soon in the future.
