Yiti Beach — Beach in Muscat, Oman

About Yiti Beach

A remote, long golden-sand beach south of Muscat, beloved for wild camping and its raw, unspoilt feel. Rocky cliffs and coves frame the bay at both ends. Access is currently partially restricted due to a large luxury resort development.

Sections of the beach remain publicly accessible. The dark skies here make it one of the best stargazing spots within reach of Muscat. Bring everything you need — no facilities whatsoever.
