Wadi shab full day - The White Sands of Fins Beach added a touch of tranquility to our journey. The powdery white sands stretching as far as the eye could see, combined with the turquoise waters, created a postcard-perfect scene. It was an ideal spot to relax, soak in the sun, and appreciate the beauty of nature. Wadi shab is the most highlight in this trip.
