Wadi Shab - In Search of The Hidden Waterfall

Without a doubt, Wadi Shab is one of the most beautiful and adventurous places in Oman. As it is quite an attraction, we went there early in the morning. To get access to the Wadi, a boat brings you to the opposite riverside. From there, we hiked 45 min through the wonderful scenery. Once we reached the Wadi, we had to swim another 15 min to get into a hidden cave. Believe it or not, we were the only ones there. Beautiful nature just for ourselves - I guess this is Oman in a nutshell.
