Not to be confused with the capital of Peru, Lima is a small coastal village on the north east coast of Oman. The only ferry routes out of the port are to Shinas and Dibba, other coastal resorts situated on the coast of Oman. The best way to reach Lima is via boat, even if it’s just to witness the beautiful mountain range that surrounds the port. The entire village of Lima is famous for its impressive mountains, offering visitors the chance to explore the erratic rock formations. The warm weather and impressive landscape create the ideal setting for an afternoon stroll, even in the evening the climate is still pleasant enough. Aside from the natural surroundings, there are several local crafts available for visitors to browse and are generally fairly affordable. The most sought after ornament is the Al Jarz, which is a small axe head typically carved from the wood from trees grown in the village. An Al Jarz is synonymous with Lima and is oftentimes bought by tourists as a souvenir. The village of Lima is so small that everywhere is within walking distance. Most locals will direct any lost tourists, though not all will speak English so it is worthwhile carrying a translation book.
Found along the north-eastern coast of the United Arab Emirates, on the Arabian Peninsula that stabs into the warm waters of the Gulf of Oman, is the port town of Dibba. This small community has a maritime history stretching back to the pre-Islamic era of the 1st Century when eastern merchants would bring their exotic wares from the faraway lands of India and China to sell at the dockside markets. The port of Dibba is located on the southern edge of the town’s bay, just beside the golden sands of Sambraid Beach. The ferry terminal here sits at the entrance of a narrow pier that curves along one edge of an inlet sheltered by a sea-wall. It’s a small area that offers very little in terms of facilities save for a departure point that allows passengers to board and disembark from the docked ferries. There is however a supermarket and café a few minutes’ walk away on the street outside the port. Those driving to the port can make use of the pristine Dibba – Masafi roadway that carves through the rugged desert covering most of the region. The route passes through most of the settlements found on the country’s eastern coast and connects to the E88 motorway that snakes towards the ultra-modern metropolis of Dubai. One operator currently operates from Dibba, travelling to three different destinations along the shores of the Gulf of Oman. The National Ferries Company offers short trips north to the Emirates towns of Lima and Khasab as well as a southbound journey to Shinas across the border in Oman.
