The Musandam region, separated from the rest of Oman by the United Arab Emirates, is the northernmost part of the Sultanate. The dramatic Musandam peninsula is perhaps one of the most scenically spectacular areas in the Gulf. These stunning fjords have earned the area the nickname “The Norway of Arabia.” The peninsula is primarily inhabited by the Shihuh, who are fishermen and herdsmen likely descended from the original inhabitants of northern Oman. Fishing is the peninsula’s main industry, with packing plants located in al-Khasab and Bay’ah. Transportation is mostly by sea, as no roads traverse the challenging terrain. Musandam - Khasab is very close to the United Arab Emirates and easily accessible by road for visitors from the UAE. Musandam - Khasab is unique due to its spectacular fjords, natural dolphins, coastal views, tallest mountain, historical Telegraph and Seebi Island, and Bedouin villages in the fjords and mountains.
