September to November and it autumn in Oman, when it is warm and dry, with highs averaging around 30°Cin the capital, Muscat--a great time to visit the city’s Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque, its minarets spectacular set against the distant mountains. Autumn is also a fine time for scuba diving and you are likely to see the turtles of Ras al Jinzas it is their nesting time. The landscape around Salalah at this time is home to a number of migratory bird species, with the cooler temperatures in September making it a perfect month for birding, while the birds are still close to their peak numbers. The autumn harvest is a gourmand’s delight bringing pomegranates, olives, walnuts, and grapes

Oman celebrates its National Day on November 18th, commemorating its independence from the Portuguese in 1650. The late Sultan Qaboos Bin Said’s birthday was November 19th, so the country usually celebrates for two days in a row with parades, fireworks, camel races and bullfights throughout the country.
