Salalah: Cool breezes, refreshing rains and greenery as far as the eye can see are what tourists who visit Salalah and the Dhofar region are in for when they visit the southern part of Oman this summer.

The Khareef season began yesterday and is set to run until 21 September, 2022, bringing with it the promise of tourists from Oman, the rest of the Gulf region, and from around the world, as people flock to Salalah to experience the unique climate during this time of the year, while the rest of the Middle East swelters under temperatures of 45 degrees and above.
