Ras Al Hadd Airport

Ras Al Hadd Airport, located near the town Sur in the Sharqiya region aims to offer tourists the chance to avoid long road commutes from Muscat and is part of a larger plan for eco-tourism integrated projects such as the one related to the endangered Green Back turtles. The beaches at Ras Al Jinz are home to some of the rarest turtles in the world. These turtles may be observed in their natural habitat and this attracts thousands of visitors every year.

The airport will compliment the development of a number of eco-tourist resorts along Oman’s eastern coast.
A concentrated effort exists to develop the area in a manner consistent with luxury and eco-tourism which will attract selective tourists who have a specific interest in eco-tourism to Oman. The airport is expected to be operational by 2014.
