Sur, Oman
Sur has been a major maritime trading port for centuries, connecting Oman to East Africa and India. The city's dhow boatyard is one of the last places in the Arabian Peninsula where traditional wooden sailing vessels are still built by hand. Ras al-Jinz, just outside the city, is one of the most important green sea turtle nesting sites in the Indian Ocean.
Roamee Pro, also known as Roamee, offers a free self-guided Sur walking tour with audio narration. Use it to explore Dhow boatyard, Ras al-Jinz Turtle Reserve, Al-Ayjah watchtowers, plus hidden gems like Wadi Shab and Bimmah Sinkhole without booking a group tour.
This Sur walking tour is built for travelers searching for a self-guided audio guide, a free walking route, or the Roamee app for Sur. Start with Dhow boatyard and Ras al-Jinz Turtle Reserve, then branch into local context, photo spots, and neighborhood stories as you walk.
