Ain Al Thuwarah

Ain Al Thuwarah is a natural spring in South Batinah Governorate that emerges from wadi walls and flows into a traditional falaj irrigation system. Date palm groves surround the area, and it lies near Nakhal Fort.

The spring has supplied water to local communities since ancient times, enabling agricultural development through traditional Omani water distribution methods. It played a key role in allowing people to settle and farm in this region.

Local families gather at the spring during weekends and celebrations, continuing a tradition of meeting together at natural water sources that matters to Omani communities.

The site has covered picnic areas and basic facilities with a small store nearby. Visit early in the morning to avoid the hottest parts of the day.

Indian roller birds with bright turquoise wings visit the area regularly, creating a striking natural display against the rocky landscape. These birds use the water source as an important resting point during their travels.
