Fodor's Expert Review Ras Al Jinz Turtle Reserve Eco-Tents

Ras Al Jinz Turtle Reserve, Rte. 23, , Ash Sharqiyah South, Oman

An hour south of Sur in Ras Al Jinz, the turtle reserve offers 31 eco-friendly guest accommodations directly on the beach. The rooms and tents include breakfast, beach access, and turtle-watching excursions. The small café in the visitor center offers light dining options throughout the day, which is a good thing as there are no other restaurants or facilities in the area. The prices for the accommodations are high for what you get, but for those with a keen interest in the preservation efforts of the great sea turtles, they offer a unique experience.
