Camel Racing: Feel The Excitement

Unlike many countries where camels are bred mainly for domestic work and transportation, camels in Oman are bred specially to take part in the many camel racing events that are held from April to August. The camel races here are a must see for its electrifying atmosphere and the number of people who come to witness it. Almost all cities have tracks built for camel races. Seeb is the main city for camel racing. Races start early in the morning around 6 AM and continue only till 9 AM. Races take place only on Fridays and on public holidays.
