**★★★★★ Jeff Kingma — a week ago

A very beautiful stop last December. We had no idea it would be beautiful and even able to swim inside. A pleasant park overall and easy to get to off the highway. It is close to Wadi Shab, so if you are going there this an easy decision to go. The stairs down to the sinkhole are lengthy and not recommended if you are elderly.

Bimmah Sinkhole, also known as Hawiyat Najm Park, is one of Oman’s most stunning natural attractions and an absolute must-visit for anyone exploring the country. Located conveniently between Muscat and Sur, this breathtaking geological wonder feels like a hidden oasis amid the rugged Omani landscape. The sinkhole is a large limestone crater filled with striking turquoise-blue water that immediately captures attention. The contrast between the white rocky edges and the crystal-clear water creates

Absolutely stunning spot! The Bimmah Sinkhole is a natural wonder — crystal-clear turquoise water surrounded by rugged rock formations.

If you are visiting with children, I would highly recommend making them wear life jackets because the water can be quite deep in some areas. With proper safety precautions, everyone can e

The Bimmah Sinkhole, also known as Hawiyat Najm Park, is a large, natural limestone sinkhole in Oman filled with a clear turquoise water pool accessible by stair. The water is a mix of freshwater from mountains and saltwater from the sea, making it a bit salty. Local legend attributes its creation to a meteorite impact. It is about a 1.5-hour drive from Muscat. Visitors can swim in the refreshing water, and capture moments. There are no lifeguards and you swim at your own risk. For changing swim
