THE ULTIMATE GETAWAY TO OMAN: THE "SUGAR DUNES"

Oman is full of natural wonders, between lush wadis, vertiginous mountains and stunning seaside.

But there is also a unique place, which one almost thinks belongs to another planet, and little visited by travellers : the dunes of Al-Khaluf, nicknamed the "Sugar Dunes".

It is a vast expanse of brilliant white sand that stretches to the coast near the fishing village of Al Khaluf, 400 km south of Muscat. The dunes are constantly exposed to strong ocean winds and are in constant motion, which is why a 4x4 vehicle and guide is required to explore this area. The shifting sands reveal layered rock formations of breathtaking beauty. The pristine white of the dunes juxtaposed with the deep blue of the ocean offer an unforgettable, almost surreal view!

The region is ideal for camping. The experience of spending the night under a starry sky, and being able to watch the sun rise, sitting on the cool sands in this secluded paradise is truly magical!

In short, it is an ideal place to pitch the tents of Magic Private Camps , our eco-responsible and high-end tent camps that can be fully privatized. Find here the report that Fleur Australe had made of her experience at Sugar Dunes in our Magic Camps. Something to inspire your clients for a unique getaway on your next trip to Oman ...
