Shinas Guide

What is there to do in Shinas?

The sleepy, quiet town of Shinas doesn’t lend itself to a long stay in Oman, but for a peaceful few days amid an imposing, mountainous terrain encompassing a host of historical and religious buildings, Shinas is perfect. There is little to do in Shinas outside of the hotels and resorts, but luckily for visitors, the accommodation is excellent; luxury bars, deluxe rooms and refreshing swimming pools adorn the setting, with friendly, welcoming staff adhering to your every need. Aside from the numerous grand hotels, much of the activity resides at the port, which is the main source of revenue for the area. The ferry industry brings a large income, and the seafood is served at the restaurants, bringing prominence to the culinary scene.

How do you get around Shinas?

The town is very small so most choose to travel by foot, or ask for a transfer from one of the hotels.
