Bassa Beach
شاطئ بصة
A public beach just north of central Khasab, backed by bare hills facing the sea. It is good for sunset walks, and locals come here to barbecue and camp.
Bassa Beach lies along the coast road about 2 km north of Khasab harbour. With bare hills behind and the Persian Gulf in front, it is a place where locals gather on weekends to barbecue, camp and swim, and it has shaded pavilions. The water is shallow and clear, and in the evening you can watch the sunset and fishing boats returning to harbour. Omani customs are fairly conservative, so dress modestly when swimming, and avoid areas where local families gather. It can be reached on foot or by taxi from town.
