Oman is located in the Middle East, bordering the Arabian Sea, Gulf of Oman, and Persian Gulf, between Yemen and United Arab Emirates. Muscat, the country’s enchanting capital city, retains a traditional way of life, with an intriguing mix of the old and the new. Oman has over 600 miles of coastline and some of the finest marine life in the Indian Ocean. Although lying in the tropics, Oman has more seasonal changes like the more temperate regions of the world. The hottest months are June through August.

The most pleasant months to visit Oman are mid October through March when daytime temperatures fall into the lower 30s and below. Oman enjoys an unspoiled culture and traditional lifestyle in almost every aspect. Even in its modernity, Oman is distinctly Arabic and offers many unique old-world wonders.
