Sur
Sur is a port city on Oman's eastern tip. Its shipyards, which still produce traditional wooden vessels, played a pivotal role in Oman's maritime past. In the city center, Sunaysilah Fort has 4 defensive towers around a courtyard. Exhibits at the Maritime Museum include ship models. Southeast of Sur, green turtles nest at Ras al Jinz Turtle Reserve. To the west, craggy cliffs surround verdant Wadi Bani Khalid Valley.
