Day 2: Wadishab- Bimma Sinkhole
  1. VISIT WADISHAB
    3h
    Wadi Shab is one of Oman’s most breathtaking natural wonders, a hidden oasis surrounded by rugged mountains and dramatic cliffs. After a short boat ride and an easy hike through date palms and rocky paths, you’ll discover turquoise pools perfect for swimming. The highlight is the secret cave waterfall, reached by swimming through a narrow gap between the rocks – an unforgettable adventure that combines relaxation and thrill.
  2. Bimmah Sinkhole
    1h
    Just a short drive away lies the famous Bimmah Sinkhole, a striking natural limestone crater filled with clear blue-green water. Locally known as Hawiyat Najm (“Fallen Star”), legend says it was formed by a meteorite, though geologists explain it as a natural collapse of the underground limestone. Today, it’s a beautiful spot for a refreshing swim, photography, or simply admiring the unique landscape.
