The ‘season’ed traveler goes now

The weather between November and March is the best to make a visit. But if you want to see the beautiful wadis in monsoon, then a month or two before November would be perfect.

‘Savour’ faire

Mutton, chicken and fish marinated in spices make for a mouth watering meal along with Laban, the salty, cardamom flavoured buttermilk drink.

Get to work

In the wadis, it is not a great idea to walk on the rocky jumble, so hire a cab and enjoy the mesmerising view. Carry a flashlight and walk towards the beach when dark to see the turtles come on shore to lay eggs.

What’s the word

Ah salaam walequm to say hi and khuda hafiz to wave good bye are the Arabic terms that would definitely strike a chord.

Keepsake courtesies

Loads of dates and dry fruits are a must buy. Another natural rarity, gold can be bought at extremely cheap rates.
