Did you know...
Oman is the oldest independent state in the Arab world and the sultan of Oman is the longest-serving ruler in the Middle East.
Oman is one of the most liberal, tolerant, safest and progressive countries in the Middle East, and a champion of women's rights.
Oman has a modern civil infrastructure and highly trained military, mostly due to training and expertise imported from the UK. The is a special bond and close relation between the UK and Oman.
Masirah Island is a jewel in the Arabian Ocean. Oman ‘s largest island, it is home to 12,000 inhabitants and is located about 18km from the mainland on the east coast of the Sultanate. Here you find a combination of perfect conditions in various spots including countless breathtaking beaches with flat water and waves. You will meet friendly, curious and helpful people who have kept their peaceful and traditional culture alive in this microcosmos. You will come as a tourist and you will leave the island as a friend. Fishing is the main business on the island and in the centre of the town of Ras Hilf you can buy freshly caught fish at the souq or stroll through a small bazaar, haggle with the sellers and experience the traditional lifestyle.
Masirah Island is reached by way of a six-hour drive from Muscat through the mountain passes and desert wilderness, followed by a 45 minute ferry over to the island. This serious travel effort may be daunting for some but Masirah Island is definitely worth it. The island can’t be reached by plane yet, so we would include 4x4 car rental in your tour. Having your own rental car also provides the flexibility to explore all the different spots on your own and creates an extra value for your holiday. You will also need a car to get to the kite lagoon each day from the Masirah Island Hotel.
