Challenge: Experiencing rain in another way…

Here in Europe, we take our umbrellas and hope the rain passes quickly….

In Dhofar, in the south of Oman, while the temperature in the Gulf countries hits 45 degrees and more, in Salalah, the second capital of the Sultanate, its 27 degrees. From mid June till mid September, the south west monsoon also called Khareef provides water for agriculture in the dry weather months coming up afterwards…Khareef turns the mountains in green paradises where exotic flowers comes alive…South west monsoon brings people together from the Gulf countries, India, Europe…and as tradition requires the yearly Salalah Tourism Festival is already announced…

Looking for magic……

From mid-september the south-west monsoon comes to an and. The sun starts to shine the whole day round. To see the greenery and waterfalls in the mountains and to taste the Khareef honey at local markets, this is the time to travel to Salalah-Dhofar. From the whole Arabian Peninsula, only the south of the Sultanate of Oman offers this magic. Arabian Sea Villas are a perfect place to stay. From there you can drive easy around.
