Shoab Beach

With sand that looks and feels like white velvety powder and clear waters, Shoab Beach will capture your heart! 

This is one of the best beaches in Socotra that looks like something out of a dream because of its out-of-this-world feel.

Know that reaching Shoab Beach is an adventure in itself. The best way to reach here is by renting a boat at Qalansiya, with dolphin sightings on the way! Shoab Beach is perfect for swimming, snorkeling, and even hiking on the surrounding hilly trails.

Best of all, near Shoab Beach’s shoreline, is a sunken ship, which you can reach by scuba diving. 

And, you should consider camping out overnight at this beach because the sandy beach with its hilly surrounding mangroves makes for a spectacular not-to-miss view at sunset and sunrise!
