Awesome day, 6 of us went to Sifah beach, a 45-60 minute
drive from Muscat. It’s a public beach that is accessed by traveling over a few
mountains. The road is paved but with some sharp turns and steep grades. We
passed through two little villages, very rural, with goats everywhere, of every
colour and hair length. People dressed in the traditional dress , men with the
dishdashas and women in brightly
coloured flowered dresses wrapped around them. We saw so many goats roaming
free, perched on everything and wandering over the road. There were herds of
donkeys also roaming free on the road and in the areas near the road. The beach
was awesome, water lovely and warm and a great sandy beach. Over to the far right
there was a resort and near us was a restaurant where we ate Easter dinner on
the beach, fish of course. I forgot my camera so no pictures. On the way home
we passed through Mutrah and I spotted the fish Souk where I will go early some
morning to see the catch they bring in, some quite exotic fish they say.
