Things To Do: Dive the Arabian Sea
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • The Hadhramout hotel has it's own dive center where you can arrange a dive trip out to the local reefs/wrecks or rent a mask and fins for $5 USD per hour and swim in front of the hotel which was teaming with big parrot fish and countless others swimming amongst the coral.
    If the dive center is closed just ask for the manager as I did and he can roust the dive shop keeper and at least rent you snorkling gear

    Things To Do: 19th century Fort
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • This was just one of many forts you will see in Yemen. This one is visable just off the road.
    No sure if you can go in or not and I did not ask or try.

    Things To Do: A good walk
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • After your meal of fresh fish or whatever you choose to eat in town take a walk along the Corniche and into the white washed old town. Everything is packed close together similar to Shibam...you could almost call in Shibam by the Sea.

    Things To Do: Fish market
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • Yemen being on the coast of the Arabian Sea is a seafood town. The tuna here would make any Japanese person salivate.

     This looks like a good place to relax. I didn't realise the old city was similar to Shibam.
