Why this site exists
English-language information about Oman's geography is patchy. Wikipedia entries are stubs, government PDFs are years out of date, and travel blogs mostly recycle the same five paragraphs about Wadi Shab. OmanMap.org plots every location worth visiting on one consistent base map, with on-the-ground notes — entry fees, opening hours, road condition, when to go — that aren't elsewhere in one place.
Everything is free, no ads in the map area, and every map can be embedded on any other site with a single line of HTML. We use OpenStreetMap base tiles, Leaflet for rendering, and our own coordinate dataset (which is open — see the JSON file at /data/places.json).
Frequently asked questions
Is Oman safe to visit?
Oman is consistently ranked among the safest countries in the Middle East, with very low rates of street crime. The main risks for visitors are road conditions and flash floods in wadis after rain — both are manageable with normal precautions.
When is the best time to visit Oman?
October to March across most of the country: warm but not extreme, low humidity, and wadis still have water. Salalah and Dhofar are an exception — their khareef monsoon from late June to early September turns the south green.
Do I need a 4×4 in Oman?
Not for the cities, the main coastal highway, or named beaches with sealed access. You do need 4×4 for Wahiba Sands, Wadi Bani Awf, the Jebel Shams summit road, and most of the routes on our 4×4 page.
Can I drink alcohol in Oman?
Alcohol is sold in licensed hotel restaurants and bars, and at duty free. There is no public drinking and no liquor stores accessible to visitors. This is uniformly enforced.
Are these maps really free to embed?
Yes. The embed code on each page is a single iframe with attribution baked in. No login, no API key, no rate limit. We just ask that you keep the attribution link visible.
