Working in Muscat
Muscat is a long, narrow city between the mountains and the sea, stretching from Al Qurum and Madinat Sultan Qaboos to Al Mouj, Al Hail and Seeb. Villas and low-rise apartments are common, and many residents drive between districts every day.
Muscat's summers are hot and humid, with daytime highs often above 40°C, while winters are warm and pleasant. Rocky ground and asphalt hold heat long after sunset, so check the surface before a walk. Early-morning and evening slots matter most in the hot months.
OnlyPaw is available worldwide, including Oman.
