Looking to visit Dubai? Keep reading to find out the best time to visit this modern, dazzling city that never disappoints!
Winter (November to March)
This is the prime window to visit Dubai, simply because the weather is perfect. During these months, daytime temperatures hover comfortably between 20 and 28 degrees celcius, ideal for a lot of walking. However, as this is peak tourist season, you’ll have to book your hotels near Dubai Internet City, the likes of La Suite Dubai Hotel and Apartments, well in advance!
Shoulder Season (April and October)
If you are looking to balance decent weather with lighter crowds and lower prices, the transition months of April and October are ideal! Temperatures are a little warmer, but still manageable. Spend the mornings and evenings outdoors at beach clubs or rooftop lounges, and head inside to air-conditioned malls during the midday peak.
Summer (May to September)
Summer in Dubai can get really warm, sometimes exceeding 40 degrees Celsius during the day. The good news is that the city doesn’t shut down; it simply moves entirely indoors. This is also the best time to travel, as there are plenty of offers and discounts. You can spend your days exploring massive indoor ecosystems!
Tip: Look out for Ramadan
Keep an eye on the Islamic lunar calendar. If you visit during the holy month of Ramadan, the city takes on a quieter pace during the day, followed by vibrant, celebratory night markets and lavish Iftar (fast-breaking) feasts after sunset.
