Shoot with care
Respect the culture here and do not photograph people bathing without permission. Go early or late in the day to capture shots without bathers.

About this spot
Wadi is the Arabic term traditionally referring to a valley. This is one of the most accessible wadis in Oman.
Entrance to the pools is free. Wadi Bani Khalid has been developed with a few bridges, seating areas, and a restaurant, but it doesn’t detract from its beauty.

It also makes it one of the most convenient wadis to visit as you can buy food and drinks and use the toilets and changing rooms.

The first pool is the largest. The wadi does get busy, especially on weekends (Fridays and Saturdays in Oman),
