Drive to Jebel Qara to visit tomb of Prophet Ayoub, better known as Job of the Old Testament. Proceeding to Mughsail, the drive offers spectacular views of the landscape. To the west of Salalah are many stretches of beautiful beaches and Mughsail is one of the most popular of these because of the “Blow Holes” in the rocky shelf close to the shore. These holes display dramatic bursts of water and foam at times reaching 50 ft in the air.
