The coastline that surrounds the Omani capital is dotted with inlets that make is perfect for kayaking. On this half-day excursion you’ll venture 45 minutes east from the capital to Bandar al Khayran, the ideal spot to launch your kayak from and admire the golden rocks alongside some of the bluest water you will ever see! You’ll be exploring for around three hours, and have a guide with you as you drift along, taking you to the mangroves and secluded beaches that are only accessible from the sea. You’ll stop on these shores for snacks and some snorkelling, before hopping back into your kayak for the return paddle.

This excursion is appropriate for travellers of any ability – the kayaks are wide and stable, designed for any level of kayaking experience, including absolute beginner. The excursion is shared, so you may be with a few other travellers, and runs on Mondays and Thursdays.
