Beach description
Staying at Al Sawadi Beach offers the opportunity to practice diving, snorkeling, kiting, set up a picnic on the shore, walk along the coast and collect pretty shells, take a boat tour after renting a boat or a yacht. Its coastal waters are considered to be one of the best places in the world for underwater exploration, which is why Al Sawadi is the main tourist destination of the region.
When is the best time to go?
Since in the summer in Oman the heat rises to 35-40 degrees, it is better to go to a cooler period – from October to March. However, it should be considered that during the New Year holidays there is a peak in the tourist season, which significantly affects the prices.
