Overview

Edit

The best kite beach near Muscat. A mainly thermal wind that blows onshore or side-onshore, the beach is protected by a breakwater, so the water is really flat unless you pass the barrier you'll be able to catch some waves. Pretty much always some light wind.

Wind

Thermal & stable, onshore or side-onshore.

Dangers

No dangers.

It is your responsibility to check whether kitesurfing is allowed at the spot; you might need a 'special permit' or membership from a local kite organization, etc. Local rules can change. Respect others - kiters or not; kite safely and enjoy the wind!

Wind

Heads up: this is a partly thermal spot: on sunny days a thermal adds to the wind, so it's usually stronger than the averages below show. The windy days include part of our modelled thermal days, as some of them turn a light day into a windy one or even bring sufficient wind. The average wind speeds don't include the thermal.

Pristine, natural, and windy – this is Oman! It is absolutely diverse and welcoming. The country is also one of the best kitesurfing places in the world worth visiting in summer. And most importantly – where you will be going, the temperature is only 25 to 28 degrees Celsius due to the monsoon climate. KiteAway
