Bimmah Sinkhole

Hawiyat Najm Park, Al Sharqiyah South, Oman

Bimmah Sinkhole, located within Hawiyat Najm Park in Oman’s Al Sharqiyah South region, is a spectacular natural limestone sinkhole filled with clear turquoise water.

The sinkhole measures roughly 50 to 70 meters across and about 20 meters deep, creating one of Oman’s most striking natural attractions. Located close to the coast, the pool contains a mix of fresh and seawater, giving it its vivid blue-green color. Although local legends say it was formed by a falling meteorite, geologists believe it was created by the collapse of limestone rock above an underground cavity.

The sinkhole is surrounded by a landscaped park with viewing areas and stairways leading down to the water, making it a popular spot for swimming, photography, and relaxation. Its unique appearance and easy accessibility have made Bimmah Sinkhole one of Oman’s most visited natural landmarks.
