Ocean Sea Food

From November to January, Dhofar's fishermen are bestowed with a bounteous season when the waters abound with ablone and lobsters. Mirbat and Sadah are two coastal towns where fishermen dive to the bottom of the sea near the coast to pluck out abalone, known as the steak of the sea and food of the Gods, mainly dried and shipped to the Far East where the demand is high. Different varieties of lobsters are also caught in these areas using traps. These premium fishery products, freshly cooked, can be relished in the city hotels. Trips to the scenic coastal villages where abalone and lobster fishing is done can be rewarding.
