Rain stops play! An opportunity to explore Oman’s maritime heritage with Captain Khalil bin Ali Al Hooti

Oman has been hit by unusually heavy rainfall and high winds so, while Mark waits patiently for the weather to allow him to pick up the journey where he left off at Bar Al Hikman, he takes the opportunity to catch up with Captain Khalil bin Ali Al Hooti, Vice President of Asyad Shipping. Captain Khalil shares his thoughts on Oman’s rich maritime heritage and how its location has helped to shape the country and its people. In particular, he talks about how the relationship to the ocean has shaped not just commerce but identity, turning Oman into a community which looks outward, where sharing and curiosity is woven through the culture. As a result, Omani people not only welcome the stories of others when they arrive on its shores but are inspired to continually expand their horizons through exploration by sea.
