Car Hire in Al Mouj Muscat

Al Mouj Muscat is one of Oman's most exclusive marina residential and shopping complexes, located 20 km west of Muscat's old center along the coast. Renting a car at Al Mouj gives you quick access to Muscat International Airport at 15 km, Qurum Beach at 8 km, and the modern Muscat Grand Mall shopping center at 5 km. The area is an excellent base for exploring the entire Muscat region.

Al Mouj is located along Sultan Qaboos Street, Muscat's main thoroughfare that runs along the coast. The marina promenade and golf course are landmarks that help you navigate. Traffic on Sultan Qaboos Street is intense during rush hours but flows well thanks to wide lanes.

Park at Al Mouj Marina and stroll along the waterfront – save your rental car for longer excursions to Nizwa (170 km) or Musandam. Drive early in the morning to Muscat's old city and Mutrah Souq to avoid heat and traffic. Gas stations are located at the Al Mouj entrance and along Sultan Qaboos Street at regular intervals.
