Enjoy a leisurely stroll through the wadi's winding paths, surrounded by towering cliffs and vibrant flora. For a more adventurous experience, embark on a trek from one end of the valley to the other, exploring its hidden corners and discovering hidden waterfalls. Relax and unwind at the wadi's serene spring, where you can enjoy pedal boating, kayaking, or motor boating (at your own expense) while taking in the stunning views of the Jabal Qara mountain range. A trip to Salalah is incomplete without visiting this natural paradise, making Wadi Darbat one of the most popular attractions in the Dhofar region.

  4. 30m · Admission ticket included
    Taqah Fort, also known as Burj Al-Askar, is a charming coastal fortress located in the picturesque town of Taqah, east of Salalah. Built in the 19th century, it served as a defense stronghold and later as the residence of the Wali (local governor). The fort's traditional Omani architecture, complete with towers and antique wooden doors, offers a glimpse into the region's history. Inside, visitors can explore exhibits showcasing artifacts, household items, and tools from Oman’s past. Perched near the beach, the fort provides a perfect blend of historical intrigue and scenic beauty.
