Yiti Beach in Oman
September 23, 2011
On the other side of Oman Dive Center and Barr Al Jissah is Yitti (or Yiti) Beach.
The road-trippers that we are we took the tricky Souq Ruwi street route instead of Wadi Kabir. I enjoyed more the views along the way than our destination itself. It seems I have been too accustomed to Dubai's white sands that brown beaches do not appeal as much. It was a 25 kilometers (from Al Hamriya R/A) drive exiting on a steep mountain ascend then through the mountains, tree-lined villages and fishing boats.
Here's a loadful of photos:
A drive to Yiti can be combined with a Barr Al Jissah, Oman Dive Center and Qantab stopovers.

Ang daming similarities ng Oman and Al Ain except of course walang beach dito sa Al Ain. Looking forward na ako sa winter para makagala naman kaso pag ganitong may pasok ang mga bata sobrang limited ang oras sa paggagala.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing these photos Bevs. Imagine na lang muna ako dahil hindi makagala.
**nakaduty ako at swerteng tahimik ang PICU kaya nakasingit ako sa pagba-blog hop :)
