Wadi Darbat

21 November 2022

Brief stop at this beautiful wadi with clear green water, waterfalls and rocks. And, of course, camels. And a donkey.

Here’s some blurb from a travel site: It’s pretty accurate:

Wadi Darbat is an absolute jewel of a day trip if you’re spending time in Salalah, Oman. With year-round water, bright blue pools, massive waterfalls, epic wild camping spots and loads of camels, this wadi is our favourite.

Set in the Dhofari mountain landscape, this is not your typical wadi with a few pools of pretty water in a gorge or valley. It is an entire complex of waterfalls, pools and rivers which could easily take a day to explore. Set up on a plateau overlooking the ocean, the vistas are unmatched and the landscape totally unique.
