Thrilling Drive to Shaat Beach

The road from Salalah City to Shaat View Point is proper asphalt road. The 10 kilometer long drive from the view point to the hidden beach is off-road.

The drive is especially difficult in khareef season, when there is lots of fog and the visibility is low. Also, the mist makes the off-road quite slippery.

During the other months of the year, the drive is still challenging, as you may be alone in the place. This has both pros and cons. You can have beach all to yourself or you may need some help in case of car breakup. The mobile phone coverage will not be there as well.

Whether it’s khareef season or any part of the year, we would suggest you go to this place with a group or with a guide.
