🕐 Best time to visit
Late afternoon when the heat eases and locals come out.
Al Haffa Beach is Salalah city's main beach — a long flat strand of fine sand below the Haffa quarter, with palm-shaded edges and turquoise Indian Ocean water. Calm year-round outside the khareef monsoon. The Haffa Souq is 1 km inland; combine the two on a relaxed half-day off-port-tour.
Getting there from the port
Pre-arranged taxi or cruise-line shuttle to the Haffa beach corniche.
