Calendar Of Annual Local Events in Oman - March to April


There's so much happening in Oman all year round. Plan ahead with our monthly events calendar. 


March

Bird Watching

March is one of the best months for bird watching due to cooler temperatures andmigratory patterns. Visitors can see many species of birds in each of Oman’s different regions. The Al Ansab wetlands in Muscat, Al Hikam Peninsula, Masirah Island, Wusta Governorate beaches, the Lagoona, and the beaches and springs in Dhofar are ideal locationsfor bird watchers. Many exotic species also live on the Dimaniyat Islands and in Musandam. There are 516 species on the Oman Bird list.
