Best time to visit United Arab Emirates

From November to March, the peak season, days are usually warm and pleasant, around 20–28°C (68–82°F), ideal for outdoor sightseeing and desert trips. April to May and October form the shoulder season, with hotter days of about 28–35°C (82–95°F) and comfortable evenings, suiting beach stays and indoor attractions. June to September is the low season, when temperatures often rise above 38–42°C (100–108°F), and humidity is high, so you will rely more on air-conditioned spaces and early-morning or late-evening activities.
