Masirah - the beach of Masirah island in the Indian Ocean. To be honest, the island has no good beaches, so swimming areas are mainly the same as the location of hotels - in the north and west of the island. Beach and seabed: sand, pebble.

When to go [edit]
Any time of the year. It's not too hot in winter here, but sea water is rather cold. Keep in mind that strong winds blow in summer time, that's why kitesurfers love this period.
