As Seeb Beach, Muscat, Muscat Governorate, Oman
Oman’s capital, Muscat, sprawls along the coast, with two old maritime towns at either end. At the eastern side of Muscat, there’s Muttrah, the city’s mountain-backed harbour. At the west edge is Seeb, a fishing village that has been gradually engulfed by the capital. Most Muscat visitors head south to Muttrah’s landmark souq and historic district. But Seeb gives another flavour and the best beach life north of Salalah, it also offers an opportunity to find out what life was like in a Gulf fishing village once-upon-a-time.
