About this activity

Wadi Shab is a famous Wadis/outdoor attraction in Oman. The main attraction of the wadi shab is the waterfall in the cave, which you can reach after a roughly 40 mins hike and swimming in 2-3 pools. People love going to this wadi as it is not very far from Muscat. The pools are always full of clear blue water!
