Some places need to be seen to be believed, and Dubai is one of them. Rising out of the desert, this shining metropolis makes a stunning first impression – and its great beaches and year-round sun keep people coming back. Everything here feels larger than life, from the sprawling shopping malls and endless desert sands to the world’s tallest building.
Experience all Dubai has to offer by flying with British Airways. Enjoy the views from the Burj Khalifa’s lounges, restaurants and viewing platform. If you prefer to keep your feet on solid ground, the famous Dubai Fountain puts on a water and light show every 30 minutes each evening. But not everything here is ultra-modern. The Al Fahidi Historical Neighbourhood offers a snapshot of Dubai before the skyscrapers and luxury cars. Here you can take guided tours of local mosques, visit the Dubai museum, and explore the Textile Souq, one of the area’s oldest markets. See all of this and more by booking your holiday to Dubai today.
We fly to Dubai from London Heathrow Terminal 5.
Dubai is warm all year round. October to March are great months to visit with temperatures at a comfortable 24°C to 28°C during the day and low humidity.
From April it starts to warm up with June, July and August seeing temperatures reach 40°C, but Dubai is built for the heat. With climate-controlled malls, hotels, transport and attractions this is still a great time to visit. You’ll also find accommodation prices are lower and there are fewer tourists during the summer months.
Sun worshippers are spoiled for choice, from family-friendly La Mer beach to Jumeirah’s world-famous white sands. Many of Dubai’s top resorts also provide awe-inspiring private beaches.
Both the Burj Khalifa and the Dubai Fountain are must-sees, whilst a day trip to the red desert dunes is a truly unforgettable experience by 4x4, quad bike or camel ride.
The Dubai Mall is a great day-out, showcasing everything from designer brands to ice skating and an aquarium. And when you need to cool off, head for the Atlantis Aquaventure Waterpark or even go skiing in the Mall of the Emirates.

You'll save money on your Dubai summer holiday, as this is low season for tourists. Whilst it’s true that in summer Dubai sees temperatures soar skyscraper-high, you’ll actually find that the city is well prepared for the heat. Sunset is the ideal time for a beach stroll and a dip in the warm sea. Plus, whatever the season, the desert is always cool at night.
