JAALAN BANI BU ALI: The coastal areas of the Wilayat of Jaalan Bani Bu Ali in Al Sharqiyah South Governorate witnessed increased tourist activities during the holiday.
The coastal areas saw relatively cool weather, clear air and dense fog, making them a favourite choice for many families, young people, and camping and surfing enthusiasts. A number of recreational activities at Al Ashkhara Beach, Asilah Tourist Park and the seafront of Al Haddah, attracted crowds of tourists, visitors and adventure and marine entertainment seekers from within and outside the Sultanate of Oman.
Occupancy rates in hotels and tourist resorts reached more than 90 per cent. Al Sharqiyah South Governorate has 152 tourist facilities.
