Musandam Peninsula
Description:
The Musandam Peninsula is territorially owned by the state of Oman, but is separated from it by the lands of the United Arab Emirates. The peninsula is rightly called the most beautiful place in the Middle East. Secluded beaches, clear sea water, grottoes and majestically towering coastal cliffs form a unique landscape of the peninsula.
Musandam is famous for its unique underwater world, coral reefs and an abundance of underwater caves, making it a first-class diving destination. The peninsula is also a great place for fishing. Every fisherman here is waiting for a diverse and rich catch. The sheer cliffs towering over the peninsula are a favorite place for climbers from around the world.
On the Musandam Peninsula there are entertainments not only for sports and extreme sports fans. Ancient castles, mosques and fortresses will gladly open their doors to every tourist. Do not forget also about the sandy beaches, where you can soak up the sun and meet stingrays and zebra sharks dormant in the sand.
