🧭 Directions

What you'll do

Kalbuh Park sits right at the end of the Muttrah Corniche, past Riyam, where the road curves around a small, calm bay — a palm-lined lawn and seaside walkway with a little sheltered beach that's good for a paddle or a swim away from the busier city beaches.
It's a genuinely quiet spot: mountains rise straight up behind the park, the water is clear, and there's a small children's play area, a café and public toilets for a simple stop on a Muttrah walk.
Evenings are the best time — the park lights up, families come for the sea air, and it makes a natural final stop after walking the corniche from Muttrah Souq past Riyam Park.

🎒 Bring & wear

Swim kit if you want to use the small beach, water shoes (some rocky patches), snacks from the café or bring your own.

💡 Family tips

  • Go in the early evening for cooler air and the best light over the bay
  • Combine with a walk along the rest of the Muttrah Corniche from the Souq past Riyam Park
  • Quieter than Riyam Park next door — a good spot if you want less crowd
  • Gets busy after 5pm on weekends
