Enjoyed our visit as part of a tour group. Stairs down to the sinkhole are steep but manageable. Restroom facilities only with no showers and lacking in adequate shaded areas to help combat the heat. Water was cool and fairly easy to access.

This sinkhole is safe to swim in and has plenty of parking on site. If you choose to swim there are some little fish in the sinkhole that will "clean" your feet and from what we are told they are mostly harmless. The sinkhole is part of some tours but we saved some money renting a car and driving ourselves there. It takes about an hour and a half to get to from Muscat and you'll be treated to some spectacular views along the way. The sinkhole itself is neat to check out and there are stairs to access and a nice garden to sit in. There are some rooms to get changed in and use toilets but there isn't much space. It is free to enter and is a well maintained area with some security. The sinkhole is between the mountains and the sea.

A sinkhole is a pleasant and pretty big spot to have a swim, lots of stairs to get down. Toilets available to change. Lots of parking but also quite some people. Not crowded but still plently of them. Definitely worth to stop if driving from Muscat to Sur.

We went to see the Bimmah Sinkhole as it was only 20km after Wadi Shab. Worth visiting if you are in the area and it is free. The steps down and up are steep. Once you’re in the water it is very cool. No changing facility so best to put your swimming clothes on first and then a tshirt on top. Once you are in the water you can have a decent swim and enjoy this natural beauty. If you have water/swimming please take these. It is unmanned but they are developing the surrounding areas

In making a decision of places to visit, we searched places on You Tube and the photos looked great here and so we stopped en route to Wadi Shab. It was a 5 minute walk from the carpark to the sink hole (it was very hot) and when we got there, there was a bit of a walk down into the water. The water looked as if the level of the water was down a little. We had a short swim which was nice to cool off. Nice to do once, but certainly not a highlight of our trip.

Visiting the Bimmah Sinkhole was an inspiring experience. This hidden gem is a true marvel of nature, tucked away in Oman's beauty. The crystal-clear turquoise water is inviting, and the limestone walls surrounding it create a breathtaking scene. It's a perfect spot to escape the hustle and bustle, connecting with nature in its purest form. The site is well-maintained, with easy access and facilities nearby. I highly recommend a visit to the Bimmah Sinkhole for anyone seeking tranquility and a touch of nature's magic. A definite must-see!

The pics online make this place look fantastic. Videos even better. The expectation was high.... but the reality is this is a 35m sinkhole with some greenish water, with lots of foreign bodies floating about and I don't mean humans. Yes, sure, if passing along the coast route to Sur, this is worth a stop. But any idea of a relaxing, lush oasis is quickly shattered by coach loads of tourists, lots of screaming kids and people who get excited over very little. Sorry, just my views as a RTW traveller.

It was easy to navigate and just an hour and 30mins drive from Muscat. We drove early morning to see the place and avoid the crowds. Reached the place and not full of tourists. The place is very nice, and the water is very clear. The entry is free to visit the area. U can also enjoy swimming in the area

We stopped here on the way back to Muscat after visiting Tiwi and Wadi Shab. Great place to stroll around relax for a short while with free entry and plenty of parking on-site. Also really friendly security team who gave us Arabic Coffee as we left. There is a small child play area on site too. The stairs down to the sinkhole are quite steep but well worth it to get a free foot massage from the small fish in the water. Lovely experience once i got over the tickly sensation of my feet being nibbled i didn't want to leave.

Stopped here as part of a tour pk the way back from wadi Shab. Easy to visit yourself though. Free car park and the sinkhole is about 10 mins easy walk from there, just steep steps down. Toilets by the car park but no shop so bring food and water. You can swim in the sinkhole so bring swimwear and towels. Beautiful clear water and some little fishes (the kind that give you a pedicure so beware of the tickling feeling!)
