Enter the Salalah Museum. Arriving right at 08:00 ensures you have the galleries to yourself. Explore the regional geology and history sections, and take your time with the permanent display of Wilfred Thesiger's photographs.

Walk 12 minutes to KFC for a sit-down meal. It is an American fried chicken spot with a drive-through, but the interior offers a comfortable place to rest and refuel after your museum visit.

Stroll 9 minutes to L'Avenue Park. This green space is close by and offers a peaceful spot to sit and let the morning heat settle. It is a quiet contrast to the museum's enclosed halls.
