Where to eat in Zighy Bay.

We compared 4 venues and kept 4 researched restaurants for this edit.

THE QUICK ANSWER

For restaurants in Zighy Bay, start with Mezzeria & Shua Shack for beachfront tables beside the saltwater pool, Sense on the Edge for a terrace 293 metres above Zighy Bay, Spice Market for traditional mud kitchen and Summer House for pool and wadi terrace. Every restaurant shown here has enough editorial research to earn its place; the wider directory is kept separate.

A dramatic Musandam hideaway where mountaintop tasting menus, Omani beach feasts and palm-shaded resort dining justify crossing a border for dinner.
