Sur is 350 km from Muscat by the inland road and 150 km by the graded coastal road. The local language is Arabic but the business language is English and widely spoken by Omani's and shopkeepers. The religion is Muslim. sur oman Wadis. Beware rain, flash floods can start high in the mountains far away, be careful of camping in wadi bottoms if in doubt. Don’t try and cross a flooded wadi until others have done so first, the water usually soon subsides. When driving through water in the wadi bottom, stick to visible tracks, if in doubt wade through first
**Sur. A couple of forts, some excellent beaches and an interesting dhow [traditional sailing ship] building yard. 3 or 4 hours from Muscat.

Slowhatch:
I don't know if it will help, but I'll make an estimate about the benches. Working with the photos Puddin has provided, I think the benches are facing nearly due east. In fact, I think you can see them in one of the photos (arrow; you can see it better in the larger image on pg. 6).

banzai:
thanks slowhatch, I was wondering where're the forts.
