Things to do

• Blue Souq - this is a pristine looking building with the town characterized by the blue tiles that form part of the decoration. This is a shopping mall of some sort where clothes, jewelry and other items can be bought. It’s also a great place to learn the culture of the locals.
• The maritime museum - if you are really interested in learning the rich culture of the Arabs and how fond they are by the sea. This museum holds the rich history of the ancient Arabs who used to dive into the deep turquoise seas looking for pearls. The museum also houses great records of the mighty voyages through see during the trade between India and the Far East Kingdom.
