Fill your Muscat beach holidays with days of snorkelling or relaxing on the beach. Or
hire jet skis and take boat trips to watch wild dolphins. Fans of beach holidays will
love Muscat for its sandy beaches at Marjan, Bandar Jissah and Qurum. But
for something a little exclusive, try Muscat's private beaches, which offer day
membership.
Secluded beaches in Muscat
Choose your time well and you'll find Muscat's beaches quieter.
Locals come to Muscat's beaches on Fridays, in the late afternoon, and
during Omani school holidays. Try Bandar Jissah, which tends to be quieter
than the more easily accessible Marjan and Qurum. At Qurum
beach, when the tide is out, walk away from the hotel area for more
solitude.
Sporty beaches in Muscat
Don your snorkel and head for Marjan Beach. Coral reefs close to the shore
make this Muscat's best beach for snorkellers. Hop on a jet ski and whiz
through the water at Qurum Beach. Take a long walk along the sand when the
tide is out. Late in the afternoon, join the locals for a game of beach
football.
Family beaches in Muscat
On Muscat beach holidays, kids will love the golden sand at Bandar Jissah and
exploring rock pools when the tide is out. From here take them on a short boat trip
along the coast. This beach also has a children's playground and a snack

dolphin-watching boat tour.

You don't have to stay on Muscat's public beaches as there are
plenty of private ones, some of which offer daily membership to visitors. Many have
