Qurum Beach
شاطئ القرم
Muscat's most popular city beach, with a long seafront promenade lined with cafés. In the evening, locals walk, play football, and watch the sunset.
Qurum Beach lies in the central Qurum district. Several kilometres of sand run alongside a seafront promenade lined with cafés and restaurants. In the evening, local families come to walk, play football, and watch the sunset. It is a great place to experience everyday life in Muscat. Next door, Qurum Natural Park has lakes, a rose garden, and mangrove wetlands. Entry is free. The local culture is conservative, so wear modest swimwear for swimming and don't go around in bikinis away from the beach. Without lifeguards, be alert to strong currents.
