This great castle is the second of the four castles in Brindisi. In the 13th century, Emperor Frederick II commanded the construction of this fortress in which the citizens could take refuge in case of danger and to better defend themselves.

If you don’t want your visit to Oman to revolve solely around souqs and mosques, make sure to include the Daymaniyat Islands Nature Reserve in your itinerary. This archipelago, located off the coast of the Wilayat of Seeb and the State of Barka, consists of nine islands forming a protected marine reservea, natural wonder often overlooked by visitors. The best way to explore the islands is on a day trip from Muscat. Tour companies operate from Muscat Harbour, offering 40-minute boat rides to the reserve. Because access is strictly regulated to preserve its ecosystem, visiting with one of these licensed operators is the only way to go. The Daymaniyat Islands are among Oman’s most beautiful spots, perfect for snorkelling and diving in crystal-clear waters. The islands are also home to migratory birds, turtles and many marine species.
