Oman is located in the Middle East, bordering the Arabian Sea, Gulf of Oman, and Persian Gulf, between Yemen and United Arab Emirates. Muscat, the country’s enchanting capital city, retains a traditional way of life, with an intriguing mix of the old and the new. Oman has over 600 miles of coastline and some of the finest marine life in the Indian Ocean.
