Oman Cruises

OMAN

Cruises from Oman take passengers on enchanting excursions across the booming and lively province of Oman, full with daring discoveries and traditional encounters. Oman, located at the eastern end of the Arabian Peninsula, has a rich history reaching back to the birth of civilization as well as a spectacular natural scenery teeming with many species of wildlife both above and below the water. Its strategic location along the Persian Gulf allows visitors to participate in a variety of land and sea sports including trekking, heritage tours, fishing, snorkelling, and scuba diving

Because they have been seamen and traders since time immemorial, the Omanis have a strong historical connection to the coast and oceanic life. They are well-versed in the waters. Contrary to popular assumption, this region's terrain is on the warmer side, with arid deserts, and there are dramatic fjords that you may sail through across this peninsula. As a result, an Oman cruise is a great destination for visitors who want to discover nature and marine life aboard small cruise ships. Oman has a significant weather system known as the Khareef season during the southwest monsoon. Around this time of year, the normally parched landscapes mysteriously transform into lush greenery that spreads throughout the area, thriving with numerous species of flora and fauna. Tourists can experience this view on a cruise in Oman.

If you need more reason to take a cruise in Oman, large amounts of cold water are pulled up from the depths of the Arabian Sea throughout the summer. This brings rich nutrients to the region, allowing it to be home to some of the most distinctive marine life, such as whale sharks, several species of sea turtles, over 1600 different species of fish, healthy coral reefs, and much more! Scientists frequently refer to the water surrounding Oman as a nursery area for whale sharks.

Muscat, Oman's charming capital, is a city steeped in the Middle East's mediaeval tradition. On your cruise in Oman, stroll along the scenic Mutrah Corniche, which features the dazzling blue sea on one side, eastern-style white buildings along the street on the other, and the barren Hajar mountains in the distance. Stop in the Mutrah souq, a classic Arab bazaar (closed in the afternoon), for Omani and Indian handicrafts and antiques. Don't miss the grandiose Grand Mosque, where the massive Persian carpet in the main prayer hall took four years to weave. Visit Muscat and visit the Al Alam Palace with its blue and gold exterior, as well as the neighbouring sand-coloured 16th-century Portuguese forts. The wadis (dry riverbeds and mountain gullies) are in blossom with vegetation, and you may swim in freshwater rock pools on some of the shore excursions in Oman, where all Gulf cruises call. The cruise season begins in late October, when it is still rather hot, and lasts until the end of March, when it begins to cool down again. Choose your month for your cruise in Oman wisely; the heat can deplete your energy at either end of the season.

Why should you visit Oman? The magnificent tradition and culture of Oman The Omani culture is one of the richest in the Arab world, not only because of their ancient past and the magnificent civilizations they constructed, but also because of the outstanding standards and traditions they developed and still practise now. They take delight in their clothing, jewellery and accessories, festival and wedding preparations, societal conventions and morals. Generations of Omanis are acquiring their fathers' distinct qualities that distinguish them as Omanis. Oman may appear basic, with no major structures, massive mansions, or playgrounds, but it is home to some of the most magnificent natural sites. Mountains cover its terrain, concealing some interesting caverns and magnificent wadis. There are also several palm trees that produce the country's well-known dates. Whether visitors wish to trek, seek adventure, or simply rest, Oman is an ideal destination for all nature lovers.

Oman is one of the world's cleanest countries. The roads in Oman are always tidy. Not only because standards are carefully enforced and cleaners do their jobs, but also because Omanis care so much about their nation that they keep it clean and beautiful. Festival of Salalah Khareef Khareef, which translates to monsoon in English, is a well-known season that occurs in the southern region of Oman from late June to September each year. Salalah, in particular, turns highly lush and rainy throughout this season, transforming the parched desert-filled city into a natural wonderland. Khareef Salalah attracts both locals and international visitors who wish to enjoy the season because of its pure consistent beauty.
