For any truly adventurous people, Wadi Shab doesn't really end at all. Finding the cave with the waterfall inside is amazing but there is much to see beyond this as well.

A combined visit Wadi Shab and Wadi Tiwi is a full day trip from Sur. The Wadi Shab is an ideal morning walk/light trekking (1 hour up, 1 hour down) to avoid the heat.
