Safety notes

  • Summer here is humid as well as hot, and the humidity is what catches visitors out: shade, water and an indoor plan for the middle of the day matter more than the temperature reading suggests.
  • Flying a drone needs a permit, and there are large no-fly areas around airports, ports and government buildings. Do not assume a camera drone is allowed anywhere.
  • Do not photograph people without asking, and do not photograph military, port or government sites at all.
  • During Ramadan, eating, drinking and smoking in public in daylight is not done, and opening hours shift; check before you plan a day around a site.

A winter daytime and a summer evening place; in the hot months parks fill only after dark. The east coast faces the Gulf of Oman, so its sea state, its diving visibility and its rain all behave differently from the west coast on the same day.
