Typically, residents of Oman spend their winter weekends camping on the beach, swimming, or tackling the dunes of the Wahiba Sands in a 4WD and trying out sand-skiing. Even the heat of the summer doesn’t stop some hardy sports enthusiasts from spending their leisure hours sailing the Gulf or hitting the greens. Alternatively, if you stay in Oman during the summer, you can always retreat to the mountains, where you can enjoy cooler weather.
