Workation in Sohar: the essentials
Sohar was one of the great seaports of the medieval Islamic world and features in legend as the home of Sinbad. Today it is a city on the Batinah coast of the Gulf of Oman, north-west of Muscat, and its large port and free zone make it an industrial centre. The white fort near the waterfront is the main historic sight, and the Hajar Mountains rise inland. Sohar International Airport is about 10 km away. The city sees few tourists, and daily life is geared to residents and industry.
