Khareef season begins in Oman

Dhofar Governorate today welcomed the autumn season, which will continue until late September.

Every year the autumn season attracts many tourists from Oman and abroad.

During the season, the city of Salalah will witness a huge influx of tourists from within the Sultanate and GCC countries as well as those from other countries. Visitors flock to Salalah to enjoy the beautiful weather as the skies remain cloudy and they are greeted with drizzles regularly. A green carpet spreads over the mountains.

According to the National Center for Statistics and Information, 376,826 tourists visited Salalah during tourist season last year, an increase of 28.1 percent over 2017.
