Oman / Al Wusta / Mahut



Wilayat Mahut is famous for shipbuilding and transporting goods and people between Oman and India or Africa. There are three islands governed by Mahut.

Mahut Island is covered by mangroves (or qurum) trees, while Jaz Island is a picturesque area containing areas of outstanding beauty. The island of Ab is an attraction to many different species of seabirds, such as flamingoes, herons and various gulls.
