Winter sunshine
The emirate’s desert climate means sunshine all year round, though there are two distinct seasons. Winter runs from October to April, and its cooler temperatures make it the perfect time to get out and explore. Summer is hot – unbearably so for some. Cheaper prices and plenty of indoor activities (or poolside lounging) await the sun-worshipping visitors who can handle it.

More of the UAE
Ready to explore more of the United Arab Emirates? There’s plenty more where that came from. Plan the trip of a lifetime and explore parts of the world few tourists venture to (or have even heard of). From desert wilderness and camels galore to world-class hiking trails and secret beaches, the emirates certainly aren’t short of personality. Marvel at awe-inspiring feats of human engineering amidst some of the world’s most incredible skylines or discover fascinating archaeological finds and historical sites. The UAE is far more than just Dubai (but what better place to start?).
