Land of dates, scents and friendly faces

Welcome to the Sultanate of Oman

Oman - or rather, the Sultanate of Oman - is located in the south-east of the Arabian Peninsula. Where the incense route had its origins, you can find old tradition next to modern comfort today. Completely without artificially inflated cities with skyscrapers, which are otherwise common in the region.

The Omanis are very friendly and accommodating. They welcome their guests with joy. It can happen that someone invites you to dinner on the street because they would like to talk to you about their country and culture. The official language is Arabic, the commercial language is English, and there is also a colorful mixture of Urdu, Persian and Swahili.

We start our journey well equipped. Our 400 hp 4x4 vehicles are equipped with camping equipment (camping stoves, crockery and cutlery, mats, tables, shovels and even a shower). The cars have a roof tent for two people.  

All you really need is a summer sleeping bag and a drivers license (no off-road experience necessary)

Most probably the best spot

Spot & wind

Oman, the pearl of the Orient. This undoubtedly also applies to our kite spot at Sur Masirah. The ferry from the mainland to the small island takes an hour. A few shops, coffee shops and restaurants are located near the ferry dock.

But we travel a little further to set up our kite camp. To endless beaches and shimmering turquoise sea. Shallow water lagoons border standing areas, with a small island on the horizon that wants to be explored. There is also a constant wind blowing, which makes the temperatures really pleasant. Oman is known for its strong winds and is more of an area for smaller kites.

Finally, we head to our absolute dream spot on the mainland – an endless playground like no other. A kitesurfing paradise come true.

Offroad across the desert

The off-road adventure

On the way to the kitesurfing spot, we'll explore Oman's exciting landscape in our off-road vehicles. During our journey, we'll spend the night in the desert, overlooking a starry sky that will leave our jaws dropping.

We explore wadis, the gorges in the cooler mountains, where, depending on rainfall, streams or pools invite you to swim. Cities and small villages with their bazaars invite you to stroll and explore. Once we reach the sea, we take the ferry and continue our journey to stunning kitesurfing beaches. To top it all off, we'll visit our absolute favorite kitesurfing spot on the mainland.

Our 4×4 off-road kite camp in Oman is an adventure, and we sometimes adapt the route during our tour to the conditions and interests of the group.

Detailed information about the off-road kite camp in Oman

Fancy a great off-road adventure through the mountains and desert of Oman? Discover with us the flair of the Orient up close and one of the windiest kite spots in the world.

We have briefly summarized all the useful information for you.

Two participants share a four-wheel drive vehicle. All cars are well equipped with camping equipment and have a roof tent in which two can sleep well. If you prefer to sleep alone, you can take an extra tent with you. Basically, you only need (for hygienic reasons) a summer sleeping bag.

The car inventory in detail:

  • Table with folding chairs (2 per car)
  • Dishes and cutlery (forks, spoons, knives)
  • Teapot (no Bialetti for coffee)
  • Gas cooker with gas bottles
  • Dishwashing liquid, NO towel
  • Linen cloth, head cushion with cover
  • 'Outdoor shower'
  • Water canister

 

All you really need is a summer sleeping bag and an international drivers license (no off-road experience necessary)

Our cars are equipped with camping stoves, crockery and cutlery. If we feel like it, we can go shopping and cook together.

If the opportunity arises, we'll grab a bite at one of the many coffee shops during the day.

In the evenings, we usually go out to eat together. The local food is excellent and really inexpensive. There are only total bills, which we simply divide by the number of people.

We always have the right equipment for you! This makes your travels much more carefree. It definitely makes sense to use equipment from our kite pool. Then you will always be perfectly equipped. For our 4x4 offroad kite camp, we take three kites and one twin tip for everyone (the car doesn't offer more space). The sizes (kites from 6-13 sqm) will be individually adjusted to you. 

Good to know: Our equipment rental includes kites and boards. If you don't have your own harness or want to rent one, let us know. If you don't have your own wetsuit yet, we will be happy to advise you with buying one or support you with renting on site.

Money:
For our trip, we need cash, as payment at restaurants or the bazaar can only be made with cash. You can exchange money on-site. Or you can withdraw cash directly on-site with a credit card. Money exchange options during our trip are relatively rare, especially at the kite spot; no money can be exchanged in Sur Masirah. Warning, for the rental car deposit, a valid credit card required.

Internet:
We recommend getting your own SIM card in advance or at the airport if you don't want to be without internet during our camp. Generally, we have reception almost constantly on our route.

Visa:
Please inform yourself in advance about the entry requirements (visa) for your country of origin. A visa is usually not a must for 10 days, but it is recommended to organize one in advance.

Drivers license:
fee is charged International Driving Permit requires (Attention, processing times can vary greatly, please inquire with your authorities in good time)

Travel insurance: We're not insurance agents, but we're committed to offering you comprehensive travel insurance. And in truth, cancellation and travel insurance does make sense. You can choose an insurance package when booking.

Equipment insurance: With the insurance tool of the Association of German Water Sports Schools (VDWS) you are insured against damage to your own equipment or to the rental equipment. This has often saved us stress, which is why we definitely recommend the VDWS Safety Tool! You can find more information about this http://safetytool.de/VY99056

I am traveling alone, who will I share a car with?
There are 2 people per vehicle who take turns driving. We make the classification and take separate female and male combinations into account.

How many days do we spend kitesurfing?
If the wind cooperates, we can go kiting for six days. Our experience: Since the wind blows there 24 hours a day, you get a net kiting time equivalent to 10 days at another kiting spot.

Is it safe in Oman?
Oman is often referred to as the Switzerland of the Orient. A kingdom where everyone is very friendly, wealthy and happy.

What is it like to travel in Oman for women?
We are traveling to an Arab country where there are some rules specifically for women, which are easy to follow. When we are in cities and villages at the beginning of the trip, shoulders and elbows should be covered. In the wadis while swimming, we wore Lycras. On Masirah Island and while kiteboarding, women can also be in a bikini and kiteboard – don't forget sunscreen.

Do I have internet there?
The internet is incredibly well developed. You have continuous 5G reception except for one spot. At that one spot, it's only available when you're standing on the roof tent.

How is the temperature?
The temperatures on our trip vary greatly, we pack clothes for very warm temperatures, but also cool, windy days.

It's really warm inland. You need long, airy clothing with a hat for sun protection. On the coast it is around 30 degrees with wind making the temperatures more pleasant. On Masirah we needed warm clothes in the evening. A warming beanie for sensitive heads and a soft shell jacket make spending time outdoors comfortable.

Do I need a wetsuit?
No, the water is very warm. We always wear a thin undergarment so that the harness doesn't rub on the skin and a long-sleeved Lycra over it as sun protection. We also recommend thin neoprene shoes or socks to protect you from sharp objects.
