Wadi Shab Canyon, Bimmah Sinkhole and Fins Beach

Wadi Shab is a huge canyon gorge with its own paradise. Filled with palm trees and other greenery, the mountain truly has character. We leave Muscat in the morning and make our way to the wadi.
We make a short stop at Bimmah Sinkhole, most likely to take photos or swim in the lake.
We pass through Fins Beach for a photo stop at this long white-sand beach, and then arrive at Wadi Shab.
After an hour's trek through the canyon, you will see a clear water pool. The water is crystal clear, and it is amazing to swim through.
Moving forward, we end up at the last pool, where we make our way through the canyon's cave. We fit through crevices and openings until we are blessed with a small waterfall glowing in an excellent blue colour. It is paradise.
After some exploring and a rest, we head back to Muscat.
