When's the Best Time to Visit Dubai? A Local's Perspective
Dubai is a year-round destination with its shimmering skyline and captivating blend of old and new. However, as a travel consultant who's helped countless people experience this incredible city, I can tell you that certain times of the year might be a better fit for you, depending on what you're looking for. So, let's break it down season by season so you can plan your dream trip to Dubai!
Winter (November to April)
Winter in Dubai is absolutely beautiful. The weather is perfect for exploring everything the city has to offer, with average highs in the mid-70s to low 80s Fahrenheit (mid-20s to high 20s Celsius). Think strolling along Jumeirah Beach, venturing out on a desert safari, or enjoying dinner under the stars. It's no wonder it's the peak tourist season!
If you're looking to escape the cold weather in the Northern Hemisphere and enjoy pleasant weather with smaller crowds, this is the best time to visit Dubai. You'll find plenty of outdoor activities to enjoy, from exploring the Dubai Museum and the historic district of Bur Dubai to visiting the Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest building, and marveling at the Dubai Fountain show. PS: Bring a light jacket, event though you most probably won't need it! :D

Spring (May to June)
Spring in Dubai starts to warm up, with temperatures reaching the mid-80s to low 90s Fahrenheit (high 20s to low 30s Celsius). You can still enjoy outdoor activities, but I recommend heading out early in the morning or later in the afternoon when it's a bit cooler.

Dubai Summer Surprises (June-August): This festival kicks off in June with amazing shopping deals, entertainment, and family fun.
Summer (July to August)
Summer in Dubai is hot, with temperatures often exceeding 100 degrees Fahrenheit (38 degrees Celsius). If you don't mind the heat and you're looking for great deals on flights and cheaper hotel prices, this might be the time for you. Just be prepared to spend more time indoors or at air-conditioned malls and attractions.
Things to Consider:
Extreme Heat: The summer months bring high temperatures and humidity levels.
Local Laws: Be mindful of local laws and customs, especially during the holy month of Ramadan.
Public Displays: It's advisable to avoid public displays of affection and dress modestly.
Autumn (September to October)
Autumn in Dubai is a lovely time to visit. The summer heat starts to fade, and the crowds haven't quite reached their peak. It's a great time to find pleasant weather and reasonable prices.
Why Visit in Autumn:
Pleasant Weather: Enjoy mild temperatures and comfortable humidity levels.
Fewer Crowds: Experience Dubai's attractions at your own pace with fewer tourists around.
Lower Prices: Take advantage of lower prices on hotels and flights during the shoulder season.
