After seeing some photos from a girl I met whilst traveling the Dominican Republic, Oman has been on my bucket list. I am so excited that I got to go this past week and enjoy this beautiful country, its friendly people and delicious food! Our first stop was Muscat and we spent our days here doing an excursion to the Al Daymaniyat Islands and exploring the town. The trip to the islands was particularly special because for the first time in my life I got to see turtles. We spent the day snorkeling and also got to see lots of colorful fish swimming in the turquoise water.
A must visit in Muscat is the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque. The architecture is amazing and I really enjoyed walking around. We were lucky to not have too many tourists around due to Ramadan and got to really enjoy the spot.
After two days in Muscat it was time to go explore the country’s nature. We started with a road trip through the mountains.
