Dubai is a city of contrasts, where luxury coexists with desert exoticism. But to enjoy all the splendor of this metropolis, it is important to choose the right time to travel. In this article, we will identify the best time for outdoor recreation and tourism.

January-February offers warm weather. The air warms up to 19-25°C, and the water temperature is quite comfortable at 21-23°C. Humidity reaches 65%. Thanks to these conditions, it is the perfect time for walks and excursions, as well as shopping in impressive malls. Without the scorching heat, you can visit the main attractions and walk around all day.

March-April: the weather gets a little warmer. Air temperature is 23-30°C, the water is already 23-28°C, and the humidity is up to 40%. The weather is still comfortable for walking, but it gets hot during the day. The sea is at the most comfortable temperature for most tourists. Spring is perfect for active recreation: yachting, water sports, visiting parks, and excursions.

May to August are the hottest months, when it will be difficult for unaccustomed tourists to stay outside for more than a couple of hours. The temperature ranges from 30 to 45 degrees, with humidity from 35 to 65%. The sea warms up to a maximum of 28-35°C.

During these months, the weather is particularly hot and stuffy, and it is almost impossible to be outside. Of course, the air conditioning systems in the rooms work flawlessly, but it is not worth planning long excursions and active walks at this time.

If you still decide to visit Dubai during these months, focus on visiting indoor venues such as shopping centers, museums, and water parks. That is why in the summer you can often find good discounts on vacations in the UAE and last-minute deals. Don’t rush to buy: weigh all the pros and cons. 

In September and October, the heat begins to subside. The air warms up to 30-38 degrees, and the water to 30-33°C. Humidity gradually decreases, making the air drier and more comfortable. Locals use this time to travel to the countryside or relax on the beach.

November and December mark the return of the tourist season, thanks to average temperatures. Air temperature varies from 21 to 28 degrees. The water is still comfortable, ranging from 24 to 28 degrees, with humidity at 50-65%. The weather is comfortable not only for walks, but also for business meetings and trips. Most deals and business license registrations take place in the fall and winter. 

The choice of when to travel to Dubai depends directly on your preferences. If you are looking for comfortable weather for walks and excursions, it is better to plan your trip from November to March. If you are ready for a hot climate and want to enjoy swimming in the warm sea, September-October is your choice. The period from May to August is best left for those who are not afraid of extreme heat and plan to spend most of their time in air-conditioned rooms or hotels with swimming pools at extremely affordable prices.
