5 MIN READ
The place today
Ras Madrakah is a rocky headland with black-rock beaches on an otherwise empty stretch of coast south of Duqm. There is no yacht infrastructure of any kind.
Cruising notes
- Anchorage in settled conditions only; no services.
- Sits in one of the longest infrastructure gaps on the entire Omani coast.
Position on the coast
- Duqm lies approximately 48 nautical miles to the north.
- Shuwaymiyah lies approximately 147 nautical miles to the south.
- Distances are indicative great-circle estimates with a routing allowance, not navigational data.
In the proposed network
Proposed as a transit marina and safe harbour rather than a destination: fuel, shelter and basic service to close the passage gap south of Duqm.
Classification in the concept: Transit marina · data status CONCEPTUAL.
All network classifications, footprints and roles are preliminary and conceptual. They are planning propositions for study, not approved projects or confirmed government decisions.
