Khasab (Arabic: خصب) is a city in the exclave of Oman northwest of Muscat. It is the capital city of the Musandam Peninsula on the coast of the Strait of Hormuz between Iran, the United Arab Emirates, and Oman.

Khasab was a city isolated from the rest of the region for a long time. It was not until the construction of the new road coming from the United Arab Emirates that Khasab itself began to develop in terms of infrastructure and businesses driving more serious tourist interest.

Khasab offers the perfect starting point to explore the unknown Musandam Peninsula and its special and unique traditions and culture. Today you can enjoy great locations in and around the city and spend 2-3 days enjoying the region.

Khasab is great for a weekend away from Dubai or to visit on the way to Muscat by taking the ferry twice a day along the rocky, arid and deserted coast of Musandam.
