Ras Al Khaimah logo

Ras Al Khaimah is renowned for its outstanding nature, leisure, adventure and authentic offerings. With an extraordinary history dating back over seven millennia, the northernmost Emirate in the UAE has become one of the most sought-after destinations in the Middle East. So much so, that Ras Al Khaimah was acknowledged on TIME Magazine’s list of the world’s greatest places in 2022! For summer sun, it’s a superb holiday destination – while it will certainly be hot at this time of year, there are fewer visitors, and lower prices for hotels, flights and activities. Plus, you can always take a regular dip in the pool and spend your relaxing beach-time under the shade of a parasol.

  • When exploring the elevated Jebel Jais and enjoying it’s wealth of activities, expect temperatures to be 10° cooler than on the lower ground
  • Surprisingly, the sky can be overcast during these hot summer months though it will rarely rain at this time
  • Towards the end of June, you will enjoy the longest daylight of just shy of 14 hours
  • To avoid the summer heat, many tourists visit between mid-November and late March – with the middle of February being the most popular time.
