These are the destinations we will visit in Oman
Date specifically chosen during ‘no moon’ for maximum turtle sightings.
This is one of the most unique experiences in Oman.
Along the eastern coastline, thousands of endangered green turtles return every year to lay their eggs on the same beaches where they were born — making Oman one of the most important nesting sites in the Indian Ocean.
On this journey, you combine adventure and nature in a 4 days journey through Oman.
Hike through the turquoise pools and hidden canyon of Wadi Shab, snorkel along Oman’s coastline, and then step into a completely different world at night — where, under the stars, giant turtles come ashore to lay their eggs. If timing is right, you may even witness hatchlings emerging and making their first journey to the sea — one of the most remarkable natural events you can experience.
Highlights of this tour:
Wadi Shabb Keyhole Cave
Ras al Jinz Turtle Hatching
Snorkel at Ras al Jinz
This is where we visit on Day 3. Its amazing!
