Dubai is proudly international and openly hedonistic. Total contrasts can be found everywhere, from camels on dirt tracks just yards away from Lamborghinis and Ferraris on super-highways, to traditional robes mixing easily with Boss and Armani suits. Traditional themes combined with 22nd Century innovation. For your holiday to Dubai think Vegas mixed with Miami Beach, with added Arabian spice and extreme opulence. A Dubai holiday is a mix of fantastic shopping, beaches, sporting activities, restaurant choice and nightlife.

The resort area has an ever-changing sky and shoreline and it is unrecognisable from even a few years back, with many more high rise condominiums, offices and hotels, with more still to come. This is particularly evident in the Jumeirah resort area and the offshore Palm and World islands, so be prepared for production on a grand scale.

October to April is generally the most pleasant period, usually with bright sunny days and pleasantly cooler evenings. There can be changes to the accepted pattern and you could experience three to four days of cold weather and heavy showers in these months, but that is unusual. From May to October, regional temperatures and humidity rise, particularly in the mid-summer months.
