one of the other most-favourited spots in Salalah that is also about a 30-minute drive from Hawana Salalah. Going there is like stepping into an insanely almost unreal verdant oasis where you can swim in a natural pool surrounded by picturesque greenery. We recommend that you take some snacks to enjoy a picnic while nature takes over your senses.
Any car can take you there but if you would like to go deeper in the mountains for more exploration, a 4×4 would be ideal.
Sink your toes in the sand of Mughsail Beach and Blowholes – take any car (a 4×4 is not necessary) and drive for just one hour from Hawana Salalah, and surrender your soul to the quintessence of the limitless white sandy beaches of Mughsail. You can take your own camping gear or choose one of the huts available for barbecues or just time to relax. The views from the cliffs are just magical.
While you’re there, be sure to visit the blowholes to witness the greatness of sea water shooting 30 meters into the air as sea waves break in the caves underneath.
Hike and picnic at Wadi and Ain Sahalnoot – A scenic 25-minute drive from Hawana Salalah takes you to one of Dhofar’s mostly loved hiking and picnic spots. The drive there is a bit narrow and winding so be cautious with those turns. Once there, you’ll find yourself quite relaxed at the scene of the beautiful water oasis at the base of the glorious mountain.
Get your Zen back at Fazayeh Beach – a five kilometre stretch of white sand and pristine crystal blue waters with a glorious mountainous backdrop. You might need a sturdy car to get there, especially to cover the last few kilometres of rougher terrain.
(check with the hotel in advance if the beach would be closed due to high waves)
