Khasab is the gateway to Musandam — one of the world’s most extraordinary natural destinations and one of the UAE region’s best-kept secrets. The Musandam Peninsula is an Omani exclave that juts into the Strait of Hormuz, completely surrounded on three sides by the UAE, making it one of the most geographically unique territories in the world.
What makes Khasab so visually stunning is its dramatic landscape: towering limestone cliffs that plunge directly into turquoise water, creating a series of sheltered fjords and inlets that are unlike anywhere else in the Arabian Gulf. This is why travellers and travel writers have long compared the region to Norway — it is this extraordinary resemblance that earned Musandam its famous nickname, ‘the Norway of Arabia’.
Beyond the scenery, Khasab is home to some of the richest marine ecosystems in the Gulf. The waters around the Musandam Peninsula teem with wild dolphins, sea turtles, tropical fish, and vibrant coral reefs — making every Khasab Musandam tour from Dubai a genuine wildlife experience as much as a sightseeing trip.
Despite being one of the most spectacular destinations in the region, Khasab remains refreshingly uncrowded and pristine. There is an authenticity to the Musandam experience that is increasingly rare — traditional fishing villages, ancient maritime heritage, and a pace of life that feels worlds away from the energy of Dubai. And yet, it is less than four hours away.
Our Khasab tour package from Dubai is one of the most versatile travel experiences in the UAE, designed to deliver an exceptional day out for a wide range of travellers:
With dolphin watching, safe supervised swimming stops, easy-to-manage logistics, and a child-friendly meals policy, our Khasab musandam tour package from Dubai is a perfect family day out. Children aged 5–9 travel at half price, and children under 4 are free.

Our drivers know the route and the border procedures inside out, ensuring your crossing is as fast and smooth as possible.

The full round trip from Dubai takes approximately 12–13 hours, including the drive, border crossing, 6-hour dhow cruise, and return journey. Most guests are back in Dubai by 7:00–7:30 PM.
Not at all. Our experienced drivers handle all the border crossing formalities. You simply need your original passport, Emirates ID (for UAE residents), and the relevant border fees. Our team guides you through the entire process.

Absolutely. Swimming and snorkelling are optional activities. Non-swimmers are welcome and can simply enjoy the cruise, scenery, dolphin watching, and meals while others swim. Life jackets are provided for all guests.
