Camping Rules

Camping Etiquette

Oman’s vast landscapes beckon with their camping allure, but remember, respect is key! Here’s a quick guide:

Pitching:

  • Respect private land: Camp only on appropriate sites, avoiding farms, villages, mosques terraces & grave yards!
  • Leave no trace: Pack out all trash, leaving your spot pristine for others.
  • Never build Fire on Ground: Always use fire base or grill

Nature & Neighbors:

  • Mind the wadis: Flash floods can be deadly. Heed weather warnings and camp well above high water marks.
  • Flashlights: Don’t miss the chance of enjoying stars or full moon by using strong flashlight, use the minimum only.
  • Keep it quiet: Respect fellow campers and local communities by minimizing noise, especially at night.

Culture & Customs:

  • Dress modestly: Opt for loose-fitting clothes that cover shoulders and knees.
  • Ramadan: During this holy month, be mindful of daytime fasting and avoid public consumption of food or drinks.
  • Seek permission: Ask before collecting firewood or accessing private land.

Bonus Tip: Embrace local customs! Learn basic greetings in Arabic and enjoy interacting with Omanis for a truly enriching experience.
