Dhow Cruise through the Musandam Fjords

We will gather at the designated time at Lulu Hypermarket Khasab, the starting point for our picturesque journey. From this pier, we will set sail aboard a traditional dhow, immersing ourselves in the beauty of the Musandam Fjords. Get ready to unveil the wonders of this captivating region!

Over the course of 3.5 hours, you will float on a classic Arabian boat, navigating through the stunning surroundings of Musandam. Witness the charm of local islands and riverside communities such as Nadifi, Qanaha, and Maqla. With cozy cushions to relax on, you’ll savor the serene ambiance as we glide through these remarkable landscapes—an experience you will cherish!

Our cruise will also take us past Telegraph Island, known locally as Al Maqlab, where we will anchor for a refreshing 45-minute swim in its inviting waters. Interestingly, the island earned its "Telegraph" name from the British establishment of a relay station for messages transmitted via submarine cable.

Continuing our leisurely voyage through the enchanting Musandam Fjords, one of Oman's top attractions, we will keep an eye out for playful dolphins swimming alongside our boat!

Our adventure will conclude as we return to the pier, wrapping up this memorable activity.
