Abu Dhabi month by month

Plan your visit to Abu Dhabi by month. Compare weather, crowds, events, and prices across all twelve months with historical climate data.

Abu Dhabi's year splits into two unequal seasons. December through February brings highs of 24°C to 26°C, the coolest stretch in the measured record. March at 29°C is a brief bridge before April at 33°C opens a long, rainless run. All 4 of the year's rain days fall between December and March, 1 per month. From April onward, the record shows 0 rain days for 8 consecutive months. Temperatures climb through May at 36°C and June at 39°C, peak at 41°C in August, then drop to 35°C by October. November at 31°C pivots back toward the cooler window.

All 12 month guides are published below. If your trip falls between November and March, start with the January page, where the 24°C high keeps full days outdoors comfortable. For summer visits, open August first to see the 41°C ceiling, then compare June or September at 39°C. The gap between adjacent months can be narrow (January to February is 1°C) or steep (March to April jumps 4°C), so reading consecutive guides side by side helps you spot the windows that shift most.

August at 41°C with 0 rain days is the month that demands the most planning. July at 40°C and September at 39°C sit close behind, and the full April-through-November stretch records 0 rain days across 8 months.

August is the decisive month, reaching 41°C with 0 rain days, the highest temperature in Abu Dhabi's measured year.
