Sobre
Fatos rápidos: Esta orla estende-se ao longo de uma das maiores baías naturais de Omã. Ela liga o antigo porto da cidade aos bairros tradicionais de estaleiros de barcos.
Destaques: Aqui, na beira do cais, ainda é possível ver artesãos costurando à mão os tradicionais barcos à vela omanitas, os dhows. Cada um desses barcos é construído sem nenhum projeto, apenas com base na experiência secular transmitida de memória.
Dicas de quem conhece
- Early in the morning, stop by the nearby fish market. There you will see the most authentic face of the city and the freshest catch of the day.
- The best time to visit the sailboat shipyards is around 9-11 a.m., when the craftsmen are working most actively, but ask for permission before entering.
- In the evenings, the promenade fills with local families. This is a great time to observe real Omani life, not just the tourist faces.
- Order coffee or tea at one of the seaside cafes and simply watch the sunset over the silhouettes of the dhow boats.
