Musandam Sea Adventure Oman
The Musandam Peninsula, situated on the
tip of the Arabia, is regarded as one of the most beautiful sites in the
region.
Nothing beats a trip through the naturally carved limestone mountains. With
their irregular peaks and bordered by low foothills surrounded by wadis, these
mountains are quite unique to the region.

Khasab
Meaning fertility, is a peaceful town lying in a small harbor at the base of
Wadi Khasab in Musandam in the north of Oman. Khasab overlooks the pristine
waters of the Gulf of Oman and the Straits of Hormuz. The land in the area is
rich with an abundance of fresh water. The population is 24,000 souls which
increases during the summer as villagers from the vast surrounding mountains
relocate
to the town to for fishing and to harvest dates.
Khasab trades with
Iran and obviously due to its proximity to the sea, fishing plays an enormous
part in the tradition and economy of Khasab; the harbor is dotted with small
craft teeming with fish alongside the sedate traditional hand built dhows used
for generations by fishing families.
The other most prolific ‘crop’ of the area is dates, abundantly harvested from
the extensive Khasab plantations. Interestingly fishing plays a part in the
date farming due to the unique use of sardines as fertilizer.
The Portuguese occupied Khasab for some hundred years and their military legacy
remains to be seen today in the imposing fort overlooking the waterfront.
