The absolute best time to visit Dubai
There is no doubt that the best time to visit Dubai is between November to March. Luckily for you, that’s probably winter where you are. Also luckily for you, that’s when the weather in Dubai is the best. The humidity really dies down and the weather fluctuates between 20’s and 30’s, making it perfect beach/outdoor activities weather. It’s the perfect time to sprawl out along the beaches, take advantages of all the events and festivals happening and enjoy everything that this city has to offer.
However, you also need to know that this is the peak season, meaning that the prices will be very expensive – whether you’re looking for hotels or planes. I recommend booking well in advance so you can ensure, both, availability and better deals. [/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]

I highly recommend not visiting during Ramadan since the entire city closes until sunset, everything is very slow-paced and there is very little room for entertainment. Also avoid the summer months since the humidity can easily reach up to 90% with highs of 40oC. [/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
