Frozen in time, unlike any other place you have seen in the region, this historical pirates bay remains the fisherman’s village it once was before the Portuguese invasion. We sail there leaving behind what we know of the world's civilization, spend our weekend disconnecting from distraction to connect with a nature that remains raw and beautiful. This signature Ridge destination returns back for the close of the season after it was put on hold for the duration of the pandemic, join us if you feel like connecting to nature, a culture almost extinct, and to have a unique adventure experience on the exclave of Musandam.
