Khawr Rawrī (Arabic: خور روري) or Khor Rori is a bar-built estuary (or river mouth lagoon) at the mouth of Wādī Darbāt in the Dhofar Governorate, Oman, near Taqah. It is a major breeding ground for birds, and used to act as an important harbour for frankincense trade when it was an open estuary. Khor Rori has been identified as the location of Moscha Limen (Ancient Greek: Μόσχα λιμήν, probably meaning "the harbour of young shoots (μόσχος)" and referring to the possible mangrove vegetation in the past) and Abyssapolis (named after the abyss besides the waterfall of Wādī Darbāt) in ancient Greek literature. The area represents a popular tourist spot within Oman and since 2000, is a part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Land of Frankincense.

Es liegt an der Mündung des Wadi Darbat in den indischen Ozean in einer geschützten Bucht. Möglicherweise ist es mit dem im Periplus Maris Erythraei, § 32 erwähnten Hafen Moscha Limên identisch.
