Salalah Tours City
Salalah, the captivating capital of Oman’s Dhofar Governorate, is a coastal gem that transforms dramatically with the seasons. Known as the “perfume capital of Arabia,” it is surrounded by lush frankincense groves that have been harvested here for thousands of years, supplying the ancient world with its most precious incense. During the annual Khareef (monsoon) season from June to September, the arid desert landscape miraculously turns into a misty, green paradise with waterfalls cascading down the surrounding mountains, attracting visitors from across the Gulf who come to escape the scorching summer heat. The city boasts pristine white-sand beaches along the Arabian Sea, historic sites like the UNESCO-listed Al-Baleed Archaeological Park and the nearby ancient port of Sumhuram, and the majestic tomb of Prophet Job (Nabi Ayub). With its blend of Arabian heritage, tropical-like greenery during Khareef, and laid-back coastal charm, Salalah offers a uniquely refreshing contrast to the rest of Oman’s rugged desert terrain, making it one of the Sultanate’s most enchanting destinations.
