Hummanaya Blow Hole
Sightseeing
Directions

Come witness the sheer power of the ocean at Hummanaya, the second-largest blowhole in the world! After a short 5-minute walk from the entrance, you'll see the sea spray erupt into the sky with a mighty roar, sometimes reaching up to 30 meters high. For the most spectacular show, try to visit between April and October when the ocean is a bit more lively. There's a small entrance fee for foreigners, and you'll also find a lovely, quiet beach nearby if you fancy a stroll afterwards.
