Located just west of Salalah, the stunning Mughsail Blowholes and dramatic coastal cliffs are among Oman's most breathtaking natural features. With the Arabian Sea crashing against jagged limestone formations, this area offers a powerful display of nature’s raw energy.
The blowholes are natural rock formations through which sea water jets upward during high tide and rough waves — often reaching several meters high. Visitors can walk along specially built platforms to safely witness this thrilling phenomenon up close.
Beyond the blowholes, the coastal cliffs stretch dramatically into the horizon. The winding road along the cliffs provides panoramic views of turquoise waters, hidden beaches, and rugged mountain backdrops.
Keep your eyes open for seabirds gliding above and goats perched confidently on cliff edges. The cool ocean breeze, crashing waves, and wide open sky combine to create an unforgettable sensory experience.
Whether you're stopping for a quick photo or spending a full afternoon exploring the coast, Mughsail is a must-see destination for travelers in Dhofar. It’s the perfect combination of geological wonder and coastal serenity.
Pro tip: Visit during Khareef season when the waves are strong for the most impressive blowhole activity — and don’t forget your camera!
