Omani Desert

oman desert

Oman has a stark beauty and a wide range of contrasting landscapes. The deserts of Oman vary from the rolling sand seas of the Wahiba, with classic photogenic dunes of rich gold, to the flat stony Jiddat al Harasis in central Oman and the Rub al-Khali or 'Empty Quarter' further south, where individual mountains of sand rise from a flat desert and stretch endlessly across the border into Saudi Arabia. The 'Wahiba Sands' often described as a perfect example of a Sand Sea consists of large dunes running from North to South, some attaining a height of about 100 meters.

Experience the sheer vastness of the desert wilderness, dine under the stars by candlelight and camp overnight in luxury or fly camp in an igloo tent.
