Description I guess some people wonder what really an true wild oasis looks like in the middle of a sand and rock desert.

This is a photo i've taken about 8 years back i guess of an oasis we encountered while we were visiting the Sultanate of Oman. It was truly amazing and we couldn't resist a little dive in the water

I am very sorry for the crappy quality, it's a scan of a photo... 8 years back digital cameras were.. um you know

This oasis looks wonderful. I just linked it to a new submission I made today of a much smaller oasis in the Southern California desert, at Desert Grass and Water .

If i am not mistaken (i took some notes i still have ) I think it is called "Wadi Ash Shab". Very beautiful place.

The water was perfect, the weather excellent, the place enchanting and the snakes friendly

I have another nice spot i'll upload very soon. It truly was a beautiful and quiet place. Swimming in there was nice! We only had to avoid the snakes in the water

Swimming with snakes? You're a much braver person than me! I do hope they weren't poisonous though!
