The best time to travel to the UAE

  • 26/05/2018

The best season for a trip to the UAE has traditionally been considered a cooler period from October to May. However, the weather often surprises - in December and January it can be quite cold (by local standards, of course - + 13-19 ° С, especially at night) and there are small rains - it is at this time that the precipitation peak, especially in Ras Al –Khaimah (17-35 mm per month). In addition, the New Year in the UAE is the peak of the tourist season and places in most hotels have to book in advance. Prices also increase almost all, and the water in the bay is not very comfortable for swimming (this does not apply to hotels - the pools are mostly heated).

Therefore, a more reasonable choice will be September-October or April-May, when air and water warm up to comfortable values, and prices are significantly lower than at the height of the season.

In the summer, it is strongly recommended not to go to the UAE - high temperatures (on average + 28-42 ° C with peaks well beyond + 50 ° C), air humidity and solar radiation make it impossible to stay outside the conditioned rooms. However, this period is good for shopping, since it is on it that the lower limit of prices (including hotel accommodation) and all shopping complexes are perfectly air-conditioned.

Separately it is worth noting that the trip to Ramadan may also be uncomfortable, but already due to the traditional limitations for the Islamic world. Tourists in most cases, they do not relate, but significantly affect the work of transport and shopping centers.
