Not for the Ticklish! We have time to swim and jump of the rocks on the other side Further along the coast just before the quaint village of Tiwi is Wadi Shab. This is still a very beautiful Wadi but it was devastated when a cyclone called Gonu hit in 2007 and its beauty was not enhanced by the construction of a road bridge across the entrance. It is about an hour’s walk to the Swimming Pools but be sure to have some decent trekking shoes in fact two pairs of shoes are advisable one for trekking and the other for swimming and a bit of rock climbing. Bring some water (particularly in summer) and do not bring any valuables unless you have a waterproof case 17:00 – 19:00 Sunset Dhow Cruise - leave the Marina Bandar al Rowdha and cruise along the coast taking in the views of Muscat Harbour the sultan’s Palace and the Forts of Al Jalali and Al Mirani.
