Dubai likes to do things bigger and bolder than most cities. A trip to the City of Gold can emcompass everything from fine dining eateries and desert trips to glamorous beach clubs, with the city already welcoming 13.2 million visitors between January and September 2024.
The Burj Khalifa and the world’s largest shopping centre, the Dubai Mall, are often on holidaymakers’ lists when visiting the emirate, but there is so much more to discover – no matter what month you visit.
The weather can very much dictate how you spend your time in Dubai: milder, but still warm, winter days bring outdoor adventures, spring heat is bearable enough to discover the lesser-visited historic landmarks in the city, have a watersports-filled experience in the autumn, or discover what Dubai has to offer inside its illustrious buildings when the temperatures are scorching in the summer.

While the winter months – the city’s peak season – may be the best time to visit Dubai as the temperatures allow you to make the most of the glitz and glamour, a visit in the summer could be rewarding for those who want to spend a little less and avoid the large crowds.
Temperatures at the height of summer can climb well above 40C, with sweltering weather even fairly common at the end of spring – average temperatures in April are around 28C, with average highs of 35C.
Meanwhile, winter serves up pleasant weather in the low 20s, but December can still reach up to 27C – meaning the city is a great winter escape from colder European temperatures. Autumn will deliver you enviable temperatures for the time of year, with daily averages sitting at 30C in October.
