About
Wadi Shab is a scenic canyon on the Gulf of Oman coast between Tiwi and Wadi Tiwi in the Ash Sharqiyah South Governorate of Oman. Visitors reach the trail by a short boat crossing over a lagoon, then walk about 45 minutes along the gorge to a series of emerald spring-fed pools. Strong swimmers can continue through the pools to a partly submerged cave that hides an inner waterfall.
