How To Enjoy The Hot Dubai Summer – Tips and Ideas
Dubai summers are notoriously hot, with temperatures routinely reaching over 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit). But this doesn’t mean that the summer season is any less enjoyable in the city. Here are our top tips on how to make the most out of the sizzling temperatures while staying safe.
1. Be Prepared
Summer in Dubai can be harsh, so it is always important to be properly prepared. Pack plenty of protective clothing that covers your body from head to toe, including a wide brimmed hat and sunglasses. Sunscreen should also be used liberally throughout the day. Remember to carry a bottle of water with you where ever you may go – it is vitally important to remain hydrated at all times.
2. Stay Indoors
During the hottest parts of the day, it is always best to stay indoors to keep cool. Air conditioned areas such as movie theatres, shopping malls and indoor amusement centres can be great places to take respite from the heat. Hotels, spas and swimming pools can also be great places to relax and cool down.
3. Keep Cool While Outdoors
If you find yourself outdoors during the scorching summer, there are some tried and tested ways of keeping cool. Try to stay in the shade and stay hydrated, once again ensuring to drink plenty of water. Attempting to go out in the ocean or the pool can be a great way to cool down, but be sure to read up on the current ocean/pool conditions before attempting to enter the water.
4. Make the Most of the Heat
While it may seem like an oxymoron, it is possible to make the most of the Dubai Summer. If you’re brave enough, try to take part in some of the more extreme sports such as skydiving and sand surfing. If you’re an avid foodie, be sure to take part in the various themed festivals and events that the city offers. There are also plenty of barbecues, movies and relaxing beach days that are regularly organised around the city and it can be a great way to hang out with friends.
Ultimately, there are plenty of ways to enjoy Dubai’s hot summer. The secret is to be prepared and to take the necessary measures to stay safe while enjoying the season and all it has to offer. So go forth and make the most of it.
Happy Summer!
