In connection with my work, I may have the opportunity to spend a significant about of time in Oman next year. I was only recently approached about this and I know next to nothing about the place. I am hoping that someone on the board is familiar with Oman. I assume that hobbying is out of the question. However, I am hoping it has more in common with the UAE than Saudi Arabia when it comes to a nightlife. Does anyone here have any experience with the place, especially when it comes to spending a few months there.

Thanks in advanced for any information.
 
Just bumping this up on the off chance those who visit terb on weekdays have any information.
 
Absolutely dick all to do there... No booze and the women wear burkhas. I have associates that have worked there and they hated it.
 
the downside is its a conservative country not as bad as Saudi Arabia but you are close, the good side is you are very close to Dubai, Beirut and Damascus via flights if you want a place to relax and unwind.
 
I have a relative who works in Muscat. He says it's a beautiful place (he has a house right on the beach) but BORRRRRRING.

If you decide to accept the offer, set aside a budget for frequent trips to Dubai.
 
Oman is not a dry country, alcohol is available.

I think that it has more in common with Dubai than with Saudi Arabia. I was only there for a short time but found it to be a very beautiful place.
Not really known for its nightlife, most of the bars/clubs are in hotels - Grand Hyatt, Intercontinental, The Hyatt, Oasis by the Sea The Radisson Hotel and others.

Muscat is very close to Dubai about 1 1/2 hr drive or about a 35 min flight.
 
Its actually 4-hour drive and you need both a highway pass and a VISA, which last time I checked could NOT be purchased at the border (ie. you have to get it in advance of your drive). Or, half-hour flight. If you get a nice place on the beach and can content yourself with passing your free time reading (and I mean reading a LOT), fishing, lying around, or pursuing a hobby like learning to play guitar, you will be fine. Safe country, nice people, outstanding food. If you crave adventure though, forget it, as there is nothing to do. Even in Dubai, if you are not rich, adventure is hard to come by.
 
I've been to Oman a couple of times and really enjoyed it.

The drive from Dubai to Muscat involves a border crossing which is not exactly designed for tourism so don't plan to be driving back and forth much.

Things to do in Oman: spend a fortune at the Shangri-La in Muscat, scuba diving, shopping in the souq, 4x4 in the dunes and wadi, the turtle sanctuary at Ras Al Jinz.

If you like good, clean, outdoor fun in the sun then it is a great place to be. I didn't partake or even try to find any night time activities.

I don't think he's gona need any extra good luck if he's a non muslim..

Firstly, good luck to him for going to a new place. That place is definitely a lot different than Canada.

The weather is much dryer and hotter. No snow and not that rainy either.

Not many night clubs in public, however alcohol is available especially to the westerners. They do treat the westerners quite well. So no need to worry.

In terms of living and enjoying the night life, I recomend you fly or drive over to the UAE (Dubai or Abu Dhabi). Dubai is very beautiful, has everything you can imagine from booz to girls to night clubs to hobbying to beaches to hotels to restaurants to activities to malls to you name it.

Its not as closed minded as Saudi Arabia, so you don't need to fear that either. In terms of safety and security, you've got nothing to worry about either.

All the best, and do let us know what happens with you and stay safe.. Enjoy
