Musandam: no pictures

So I finally go down to musandam, but unfortunately didnt get any pictures, mishu went back to qatar, and his pics are down on deeperblue.

Go there before you die... Its that beautiful.

Turtles, coral of every type. And thats a bad day.

Unfortunately now there is red tide... "the sea is bleeding" or so the rough translation from arabic is... Imagine two bodies of water, one green, one a dark red right in front of you.

Under the green part imagine corals, and marine life like in all those deep sea films. But under the green part imagine pitch black, something straight out of our holy books.... and a frigid cold.

quite scary. But dont let that deter you.

nonetheless, eels, blacktip reefsharks, mahi mahi, queenfish, jash of all kinds, baby rainbow runner, kingfish, and a fish called ?craga? in arabic... the few linked pictures do no justice

The real pictures are in my memories.

Offering a true combination of recent day shopping centers and ancient day Mosques, impressive structure in addition to fantastic hills of the wasteland, the city offers a lot to travelers of Musandam Dibba
