Day 1: Muscat - Bimmah Sinkhole - Fins Beach - Sur - Ras Al Hadd Depart from Muscat in the morning and head to Ras Al Hadd. Stop at Bimmah Sinkhole, a water-filled depression in the limestone of eastern Muscat Governorate. Swim in the turquoise waters of the sinkhole, which is 50 meters by 70 meters wide and 20 meters deep. Continue to Fins Beach, a white sandy beach with turquoise waters. Then, drive to Wadi Shab, a canyon gorge lined with palm trees. Hike for 45 minutes to reach the crystal-clear water pools. Swim through the warm waters from pool to pool and reach the last pool, where you can swim into a crevice cave with a small waterfall inside. Continue to the city of Sur and visit the Arabian Dhow Factory. Explore the old part of Sur, where most of the houses are designed with wooden doors and windows. Drive to Ras Al Hadd and check in to your hotel. After dinner, go on a guided walking tour on the beach at night and see sea turtles laying eggs. Day 2: Ras Al Hadd - Wadi Bani Khalid - Wahiba Sands - Muscat Drive to Wadi Bani Khalid, one of the biggest and most beautiful wadis in Oman. Take a short walk to reach the sparkling, blue, clear water pools, perfect for a long swim. Relax and sunbathe in the beautiful scenic wadi canyon. In the afternoon, continue to Wahiba Sands, a region of desert in Oman. Have fun in the golden sands and enjoy a dune bashing experience with your guide. Afterward, drive back to Muscat.
