Quriyat & Daghmar

28 January 2010

Quriyat is a fishing village, rather quiet and tranquil.  As we drove to the seaside, we passed narrow and winding roads with houses on both sides.  The view of the harbour was nice where the fishing boats are parked there.  Quriyat was a significant trading port in ancient times.

Daghmar.  We drove in to Daghmar by chance whilst trying to find Bimmah Sinkhole.  Its is a peaceful fishing viilage and the view of the sea gives me the sense of peace and tranquil.
