Local know-how to help you travel smarter and make the most of every moment.
Car
If you are traveling by car, head towards Bukha from the main road leading through the Musandam Peninsula. From Khasab, take the road towards Bukha, which is approximately 30 km away. Follow the signs to Bukha, and as you approach the town, look for 45V3+W9G on your GPS or maps application, which will direct you to the fort. There is usually ample parking near the fort.
Public Transportation
If you prefer public transportation, you can take a local bus from Khasab to Bukha. The buses run frequently throughout the day, and the fare is generally around 1-2 Omani Rials. Inform the driver that you want to go to Bukha Fort, and they will drop you near the entrance of the fort. Once you arrive, it's a short walk to the fort itself.
Walking
If you are already in Bukha, you can easily walk to Bukha Fort. The fort is located in the town itself, and from the center of Bukha, it should take you around 10-15 minutes on foot. Simply head towards the coast, and you'll see the fort clearly marked from a distance. Make sure to wear comfortable shoes, as the path can be uneven.
