I've enjoyed all of your trip reports that I've read, Daniel, but this one I liked especially since Musandam was part of one of the last trips I took before the pandemic and it's such a lovely, relaxing place. Plus, seeing dolphins in the wild never fails to bring a smile to my face.

I stayed at the same hotel in Khasab 3 years ago. Smart you were on the 2nd floor. We were on the ground floor and the room was dark. I had no idea
they had an infinity pool. The pool I swam in was very nice but near the restaurant. The boat trip was fantastic. Cute baby!

. Sad that we can no longer go across the border now with Covid

Great TR, thanks for sharing (although it's from last year, I got to notice it only now !).
The pictures are great, especially the drone ones. Did you have to request a special permit to omani authorities to use it ? I am getting confused with all those drone rules nowadays...
We went to Oman in Feb 2020 and my gf and I just loved it (was the second time for me and first time for her). We were hesitating to go to Musandam peninsula but given the trouble with brining a rental car from Oman through UAE border, we opted to stay in the "mainland" and went to dhofar instead. Musandam peninsula will be on our list to see for next time, thanks to your TR !
