WADI DAYQAH

Lined with terraced plantations and smooth, polished rocks, this oasis is constantly filled with water and offers a succession of pools wedged between two cliffs: a spot for swimming! Muscat's residents make no mistake and regularly come here to bask at weekends. Thanks to their orientation, the canyon's walls provide shade where it's good to rest or hike for a few hours - a footpath along the old caravan route that linked the port of Qurayyat to the interior.
