In this research, we present an analysis and study impact of shoreline temporal changes in Dhofar region in Oman using remote sensing and GIS techniques. Satellite imagery data from numerous sensors, including TM, ETM+, and OLI are used to capture the fluctuations of the shoreline and evaluate the hazards associated with coastline erosion. In order to extract accurate shoreline positions and quantity shoreline changes, automatic coastline extraction techniques are used. Based on the measured erosion rate of change, the studied shoreline areas exhibit a stable to moderate erosion rate, where Rakhyut coast has the most erosion rate of -3m/yr, and Mughsail beach displayed the highest accretion rate with almost 5 m/yr.
