Are you searching for sunset dhow cruise muscatEnjoy a sunset cruise on a typical Arab trading vessel called a ‘dhow.’ Enjoy sea breezes while cruising through the rugged coastline of Oman dotted with medieval forts and fishing villages. Look at postcard-worthy sights that you pass like Al Bustan Palace, Muttrah’s Corniche and Al Al Alam Palace — the residence of the Sultan of Oman nestled in the Muscat harbour. Sip bottled water and soda as you catch the colorful sunset on the water throughout your break, plus Muscat hotel pick-up and drop-off.

On this 2-hour sunset cruise from Muscat sail along the spectacular coast of Oman on a wooden ‘dhow,’ an Arabian sailboat! Settle down on your vessel’s cushion-covered deck, and enjoy the scenery and cool sea breezes. Cruise past quiet villages and medieval forts, and see in all their glory the Corniche of Muttrah, ancient Muscat harbor and Al Bustan Palace. As the last sun’s rays illuminate the landscapes, the last time you sail back to port, you will enjoy the views. On board are provided unlimited bottled water and sodas.

Start your day with a pickup from your Muscat hotel, and move outside the city to Marina Bandar Al-Rowdha to embark on your traditional wooden dhow. For decades, these handcrafted vessels have been used to trade across the Arabian Peninsula, and still ply the waters of Oman. Settle down on the cushion-covered deck as your dhow sets sail. As you drift north, admire Oman’s Hajar Mountains and rugged coastline, with cliffs opening up to secluded bays and tiny fishing towns. Pass Muscat Yacht Club and picturesque Ahlan hamlet where colorful fishing boats are speckling the beach.

Take photos of Cemetery Bay, home to World War I servicemen’s graves, and keep your camera handy when you cruise into old Muscat harbour. See cliff paintings showing the ships that have docked here over the centuries and looking at the Jalali and Mirani forts of the 16th century, both standing guards over Al Alam Palace: the Sultan of Oman’s glittering residence. Next, sail into the harbor of Muttrah and take in the views over the glittering, whitewashed Corniche set against the barren mountains. Then, as the sun sets and casts in a golden glow everywhere, drift along the Al Bustan Palace, one of the most exclusive hotels in Oman.
