The Sultanate of Oman occupies the southeastern tip of the Arabian Peninsula. Oman is bounded by sea on two sides, the Gulf of Oman to the northeast and the Indian Ocean to the southeast, resulting in a coastline of 3165 kms. The Sultanate's land ward borders are with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to the west and the Republic of Yemen to the south, while the United Arab Emirates border Oman to the north.
