Hallaniyats - No Boundaries Update

[Ed Nicholas]

Just returned from a week at the No Boundaries Lodges, went down to supervise some of the renovations we are having done. Lodges are coming along great and im sure our guests will be pleasantly surprised by the level of comfort we offer. Although this is our business the lodges are also our full time home which makes a big difference, cant move my wife and son down to basic lodges 

I got to fish every morning and evening, conditions are very rough at the moment due to the monsoon but still caught some Golden & Black fin Trevally on lure and had a lot of juvenile Sand Sharks (Guitar ray) on bait. Some of the locals are still braving the sea's though. A few days before I arrived one of the boats capsized on the way out and 2 fisherman died, many of them cant swim and dont own life jackets.

One of the local boys was kind enough to show me the way to a Wadi (Fresh Water pools/Oasis) that is about 20km from the lodges. Landscape here is very arid & dry so i thought i was experiencing a mirage when i came across this lush vegetation and pools in the middle of nowhere. Really is a sight to see.

Other highlight of my week was seeing one of the local boys fishing with his hand line and cast net without much luck. He had never used a spoon before and was amazed i was pulling in fish without any bait. This guy fished to provide for himself and wife who was sat on the floor watching him so i was happy to give him a few spoons and explain (In sign language!) that you have to pull in the line quickly which he did by hand. First cast/throw and he was in! Quickly caught a bunch of fish for dinner and we were both super stoked!

Should be able to post some pics of the lodges very soon, want to wait till the work is finished though, we are spending over $50,000 on getting them in top shape and furnished well which is a huge amount of money in Southern Oman.

Hi ed

Whats the travel arrangements like to get there? Do we have to fly into Dubai first and take a road trip or connecting flight? Do let me know the traveling time required if there's driving involved.

Do you provide lodging options? Would like to know about the damage as well! 

Do kindly provide any other relevant details (costs, lodging options, travel arrangements, trip schedule for 4 days fishing) via PM. Cheers!

Steve
