Stunning Beaches

One of our first weekends in Salalah, we went to one of the beaches nearby, and they are just stunning! They are really isolated and foggy, due to the monsoon climate.
Unfortunately, we can't actually swim in the water, which is just a tease. We can look at the water, we can put our feet in the water, but that's about it. This is because of the monsoon climate, which creates really terrible undertow, and they told us about four times at orientation that we could die. So not wanting to tempt fate, we went to the beaches and played frisbee and soccer, and took lots of pictures of the beaches from which you will now benefit.

They look much more romantic than they really are. In reality, they are just beaches. They are really pretty. But what is a beach really, without swimming in the ocean?
