Musandam
A plate from the Wajd atlas
Plan a Musandam visit around Khasab's inlets and forts, with a suggested two-day stay and links to check flights, ferries and entry requirements.
A weekend based in Khasab
A suggested visit, not a booked package. If your trip leaves from Dibba, plan around Dibba instead: it is a different departure point, not another name for Khasab.
Day 1
Arrive and explore Khasab
Leave room for the journey and check-in. Consider Khasab Fort and a relaxed coastal stop, with opening hours checked before you go. Avoid tying arrival to a boat departure you might miss.
Day 2
Make the inlets your main outing
Arrange a dhow trip with an operator and confirm the departure point and return time. Ask about shade, toilets, children's life jackets and cancellation terms. Leave a buffer before your journey home; this outline does not confirm a sailing.
Choose how to get there
Driving from Dubai or the UAE
Check Oman's entry requirements for every traveller before paying. Confirm the crossing and your return-entry requirements with the relevant authorities; ask your rental company or insurer about taking the vehicle across the border.
Check Oman visa optionsFlying from Muscat
Oman Air lists the Muscat to Khasab route. Check your dates directly with the airline and arrange onward transport. A route listing is not confirmation of seats or an operating flight.
Check Muscat to Khasab flightsTaking the ferry from Shinas
Mwasalat lists Shinas to Khasab among its ferry routes. Confirm both directions, vehicle space if needed, passenger documents and check-in with the operator. Do not plan around an unconfirmed timetable.
