November – February 15°C – 28°C Pleasant and comfortable. Cooler evenings. Ideal for outdoor sightseeing, beaches, and city walks.
March – June 22°C – 38°C Warm to hot. Afternoons can feel intense. Best to plan outdoor activities in the morning or evening.
July – October 28°C – 45°C Very hot and humid. Outdoor movement is limited. Indoor attractions and short outings work best.

Local Transportation Options

  • Taxis
  • App-based cabs
  • Buses and trams

Must-Try Street Food and Where to Find It

  • Find the best Shawarma stalls across Deira and Bur Dubai
  • Enjoy the classic grilled kebabs at local eateries in Al Karama
  • Falafel sandwiches from small takeaway shops across the city are a true must-have
  • For desserts, indulge in Manakish from bakeries in older neighbourhoods

Additional Tips for Year-Round Travel

  • The S’hail App is Essential: Beyond standard maps, download the S’hail app for real-time tracking of the Metro and buses. It’s the most accurate way to navigate the RTA network and avoid waiting in the heat.
  • The "Silver Nol" Hack: As soon as you arrive at Terminal 1, purchase a Silver Nol Card. It works for the Metro, buses, and even the traditional water taxis (Abras). It is significantly more cost-effective than buying single-trip tickets for every journey.
  • Right-Hand Etiquette: It is a subtle but respected local custom to use your right hand when shaking hands, passing documents, or accepting food and drink.
  • Dress Code Nuance: While the beach is liberal, malls and government buildings are strictly professional. Always keep a light shawl or "pashmina" in your baggage—not just for modesty, but because the air conditioning in malls and the Metro is famously powerful.
