Water Temperature Oman
The Sultanate of Oman is located in the southeastern part of the Arabian Peninsula, and its coast with a length of 2000 km is bordered by the Indian Ocean, the Gulf of Oman and the Arabian Sea, with the coast being divided into two major sections. Along its long coast, Oman is dominated by the influence of the prevailing trade winds, as well as the Indian monsoons.
The beaches in the north of the country, along the Gulf of Oman, are suitable for bathing year-round. While the water temperature in winter is around 25°C, it rises to a very warm 26°C to 31°C in the summer months. Due to the high water temperatures, it stays warm all year round.
The Arabian Sea along the southern coastline of Oman also invites swimmers all year round. The climate here is primarily tropical and is generally subject to less variation in air and water temperatures. The sea temperature here oscillates between 25°C and 29°C.

International Trade
Oman's foreign trade in the first half of the last century was limited exclusively to agricultural products. Oman’s top exports early on were dates and regionally produced vegetables, fish, and frankincense resins. Trade during this time was primarily a domestic affair, with virtually no exchange with other states. Even rice, a staple of Omani food, was imported. Other types of goods were rarely imported nor considered necessary. There were no major trading ports in Oman, no serviceable airports, no infrastructure, and no modern communications technology. Oman was a dead country economically, ...
Family Life in Oman
Family life in Oman has little to do with how a Western European might imagine family life in an Islamically influenced country. The woman is seen here as a partner of the man, not as his property. Women are expected to be able to earn their own living, although they still play a significant role in raising children today. However, education for girls is regarded by the politics in Oman as equally important as education for boys. A school diploma, higher education, and vocational training are completed by both genders here. Thus, normal family life in Oman has much in common with how it was kn...
