June is rated avoid. These months rate higher:

Weather in June

  • Gulf coast · Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ras Al Khaimah townhot

    November to March runs 20–30 °C (68–86 °F); June to September sits at 40–46 °C (104–115 °F) with humidity that makes nights sticky; shamal winds bring dust in spring and early summer.

  • Hajar mountains · Hatta, Jebel Jais, Wadi Shawkahot

    Jebel Jais summit is 8–10 °C (14–18 °F) cooler than the coast and can drop near freezing on winter nights; wadis flood after rare storms.

  • Inland desert · Al Ain, Liwa, Al Wathba, Sweihanhot

    Drier heat, often above 48 °C (118 °F) in July and August; Sweihan has recorded above 50 °C (122 °F). Winter nights in the dunes are cold.

  • East coast · Fujairah, Khor Fakkan, Dibbahot

    Gulf of Oman side: slightly cooler sea breezes, but July–August humidity is extreme; calm water for snorkelling Oct–May.

  • Humid in summer; sea breeze keeps evenings bearable. Winter days sit around 24–28 °C (75–82 °F).

  • Abu Dhabi: Interior (Al Ain, Liwa) · Oasis and Empty Quarterhot

    Drier and hotter than the coast; desert nights in Dec–Feb can drop near 10 °C (50 °F), so pack a layer for dune camps.

  • Sharjah: Sharjah city and the Gulf coast · main block bordering Dubaihot

    November to March is the walking season; May to September is 38–45 °C (100–113 °F) with high humidity, so museums and malls are the daytime plan.

  • Sharjah: Khor Fakkan and Kalba · Gulf of Oman exclaveshot

    Slightly cooler and breezier than the Gulf coast, but the same summer heat; the east coast is the better beach choice in shoulder months.
