Best time to visit Dubai for Indian Citizens
If you haven’t yet planned out your dates of travel, you might want to consider the weather conditions, local events, tourist activities and a lot more before you freeze on your travel dates. Like most countries in the Middle East, the summers aren’t really a recommended time of the year. This is because the temperatures can be scorching hot, limiting you from lots of outdoor activities.
However, the months between November to April are a great time to visit, owing to the pleasant weather conditions and a host of events and festivals that are at its peak during this time.
If you’ve already confirmed on your dates of travel for the summer season, fret not! There are tons of activities for the summer babies as well. Right from the water parks, the beautiful beaches and resorts, an array of water sports, and the famous Ski Dubai at the Mall of the Emirates, where you can try your hand at skiing and friend some penguins too! Dubai never fails to surprise. There’s something to do for just about anyone.
Note: Since the UAE is a Muslim country, Ramadan is widely practised and currently falls during the summer season. Due to this, a lot of timings and activities may differ, such as a lot of restaurants only start serving food after sunset (the time at which Muslims break their fast). You may want to check on the dates and details based on this and make plans accordingly.
