Video Footage: The Dhows And Forts Of Sur Oman

ID 301121143 © No40420 | Megapixl.com

The coastal city is found south of the capital Muscat, along the wind swept and stony shores of the Gulf of Oman.The city is known for its seafaring. Traders and sailors have called into Sur for centuries, and the city is even by some accounts the home of Sinbad, that legendary, mythical Arabian Sailor- although Sohar, another Omani city, also claims Sinbad as their own, as I also expect many other Arabian cities do too. While the legend of Sinbad is just that- a legend– what is indisputable is Sur’s long connection to the sea. I travelled to Sur to uncover the last of the Dhow builders, known across Arabia for their sturdy ships, and to explore the forts and watchtowers of the coastal city.
