Salalah beach
Ultimate guide (December 2024)
Salalah is the most popular beach resort town in Oman. A miles long coastline with white sand and palms is perfect for a family holiday. However, in most cases, trees are located far from the water's edge. So you should not expect a perfect tropical paradise. It's like that only in expensive beachfront hotels. However, budget tourists will also feel very good here. You just have to buy a beach umbrella on the very first day. Shore and seabed: sand.

Hotels [edit]
In Salalah, there is a large choice of hotels with rooms' fares starting from US$30. However, it is better to choose upscale beachfront resort with a swimming pool (room from US$150 to US$600 per night). In this case, you'll have a comfortable swimming even when waves are strong in the ocean.
How to get there [edit]
Fly to
Muscat International Airport (MCT) or fly to
Salalah International Airport (SLL). Next get by bus or hire a taxi.
When to go [edit]
The best time for a beach holiday in Salalah is spring and autumn. Summer and winter are also good enough, but sea water is cooler. In winter - because it is winter, and in summer - because there are a lot of clouds in the sky.
