Wadi Bani Khalid Pool, Natural swimming pool in Ibra, Oman.
The pools contain emerald water surrounded by white limestone cliffs, featuring multiple connected basins with varying depths throughout the year.
The water system at Wadi Bani Khalid integrates traditional Falaj irrigation channels that locals have used for agriculture across generations.
Local regulations request swimmers to wear appropriate covering attire, with women using t-shirts and shorts instead of regular swimwear.
The site opens daily from 5:30 AM to 6:30 PM, offering facilities such as a restaurant, changing rooms, and restrooms near the main pool.
Small fish inhabit the water, providing natural pedicures to swimmers who stand still in the clear pools.
