We were invited by Musandam Sea Adventure Travel & Tourism to go on a Dhow trip to swimming and snorkeling, we started at 10 am and it was amazing, the sea is beautiful and calm and a lot of fish special when our guide started to feed the fish. Once we are done we were transport to Rubba, a Yakht with room to sleep and enjoy the sea. We transferred from the Dhow to Rubba, a Yacht which you can chartered to go for a day, two, three or more.

One we got to the Yacht, it is started to sail and what an experience, we met people from Switzerland and they wanted to know more about the book project and they were very interested. We also went with them for a walk 440 steps, what an amazing experience. When we got back the friendly and nice staff of Rubba, started cooking and the prepare the food. We had our delicious dinner and we went to bed. The following morning, we came back to Khassab and we went to buy honey from Eid Al Shihi and then we went to see the Zip line and learn more about it. It is the longest zip line in the world over the sea.

We had lunch at Yemeni restaurant, came to the hotel to rest.

We also met some friends who are interested on helping on our project to promote Musandam.

It was a short research trip and we can’t leave without meeting Abdul Fattah who came with us to a turkish restaurant. It was special experience and we look forward to come again soon.
