Dubai in May is the time of year when the temperature gradually begins to rise. But the heat is not intense, making it still a comfortable time to visit Dubai. This further comes with a lot of perks; as it’s the time when things begin to slow down after the peak winter season, you can expect relatively fewer crowds and look forward to being part of some cool, exciting events and experiences. So, if you’re planning a Dubai holiday in May, this post gives you a detailed account of the city’s top attractions, events, and things to do this month.

Why Should You Travel to Dubai in May?

Dubai is still ideal for the outdoors

May in Dubai indicates the start of summer, but it’s still great to enjoy the outdoors. In other words, it’s the time when you can check out the best places to visit in Dubai, like beaches, deserts, parks, etc., before the mercury reaches its peak (50 to 55 degrees Celsius) in the coming months (particularly July and August).

Exciting Events and Experiences

Wondering what to do in Dubai in May besides visiting attractions and beaches? Dubai plays host to some of the best shows and events year-round, and May is no exception. From standup comedies and music concerts to live plays, there is a fantastic line-up of events to watch out for in May.

Seasonal Attractions

Most seasonal attractions, such as Dubai Miracle Garden, Global Village, etc., are closed by April. That said, you can visit Dubai Garden Glow before it closes for the season this month.

Incredible Price Drops

As May is the beginning of the off-season, it’s very likely that you’ll enjoy some steep reductions on your hotel accommodations and airline tickets. You can also enjoy some tempting offers on entry tickets to the city’s major landmarks, theme parks, safaris, cruises, etc.

Things to Do in Dubai in May

Watch the Dubai Fountain Show

Downtown Dubai is one of Dubai’s most visited neighborhoods for all the right reasons. It boasts the world’s tallest building and the world’s biggest shopping mall, but it probably grabs maximum attention for its Dubai Fountain Show, which is a light and water spectacle like no other, wherein water is sprayed out in sync to mindblowing Arabic, Bollywood, or western music. It’s displayed every 30 minutes after 6 p.m., and the best thing is that it’s free to watch. You can find this attraction on Burj Lake, which is adjacent to the Burj Khalifa and outside the Dubai Mall.

Take a Spin across the Ice at the Dubai Ice Rink

Crave for a frozen escape when summer heat begins to rise? You don’t have to travel far; just head down to the Dubai Ice Rink inside Dubai Mall. The highlight is an Olympic-sized ice rink sprawling over an area of 1500 square meters. For a twirl on the ice, you can select from several skating packages, such as Freestyle Skating, Dubai Snowfall, Family DJ Party, etc. Are you a first-timer who still wants to try this? There are several skating aids that take the form of Bob Skates and Penguin Pals.

Explore Dubai’s Theme Parks

No matter when you visit Dubai, its theme parks are unmissable. They are all set indoors and come with some exciting rides and attractions. IMG Worlds of Adventure is a true haven for families and kids who adore Marvel superheroes, cartoon characters, and dinosaur-inspired thrills. For the ultimate theme park experience, consider a visit to Dubai Parks and Resorts, which is certain to spoil you with its three theme parks (Motiongate Dubai, LEGOLAND Dubai, and LEGOLAND Water Park). For gaming enthusiasts, there are options like Play DXB, an absolute park for VR-based rides and games. What’s more? You’ll also come across kid-exclusive attractions at KidZania Dubai.

Drive around the Palm Jumeirah

Dubai’s man-made, palm-tree-shaped island is so famous that it’s a must-experience on any Dubai travel bucket list. One of the coolest ways to take in this island with a crescent on its top is to jump from an aircraft on a skydive session or on a helicopter ride. If you are looking for a cost-effective alternative to these wild adventures, make your way to the recently opened The View at The Palm observatory. You can further opt to hire a cab or even book a three-hour limousine Dubai tour to ride around its main sights. There is also a monorail ride that encompasses the route from Atlantis Resort to Al Sufouh Gateway.

Plan a Picnic at a Beach or Park

As the temperature in Dubai is not yet harsh, it allows you to head outdoors and experience its many beaches and lush parks. How about a picnic in Dubai Creek Park, Zabeel Park, or Mushrif Park? You can also enjoy the warm sunshine and cool activities at the pristine Jumeirah Beach or Kite Beach, an ideal location for sunbathing. These parks and beaches are superbly maintained and are replete with BBQ facilities, kids’ play areas, etc.

Spend a day at a Dubai Water Park

What’s a Dubai summer trip without a splash in its water parks? Take any of Dubai’s water parks – from the classic Wild Wadi Water Park and the breathtaking Atlantis Aquaventure to the recently opened AquaFun Water Park each of them is distinct with an exciting theme and, of course, loads of thrilling water rides and slides. All water parks are complete with kid-specific sections, which mean they are for all ages and abilities.

Cool off at Ski Dubai

This is one of favorite attractions of the people of Dubai when the summer heat begins to escalate. Found inside the Mall of the Emirates, it’s where you can enjoy all snow activities imaginable even when the outside temperature is at its highest. Be it skiing, tobogganing, or simply throwing snow, you can try all of them, and that too as per your unique thrill levels.

Take a Dinner Dhow Cruise

This evening cruise along Dubai Creek or Dubai Marina is your ticket to admire Dubai’s marvelous sights at a placid pace without any crowd or annoying traffic to disturb you. The most exciting part is that you get to enjoy this cruise in a traditional Arabian dhow, which was once used for pearl farming and fishing (before the discovery of oil in the region). Besides striking views, you can relish a buffet dinner and a stunning Tanura performance during this cruise. Want to add a luxurious spin to your cruise experience? Head out for a 3-hour yacht ride Dubai along the region’s exuberant waters.

Experience a Desert Safari

If you’re imagining a Dubai desert trip in May, luckily, the heat is tolerable for a desert safari. Select the refreshing morning safari or the more activity-packed evening desert safari with a 4×4 dune bash, camel ride, cultural activities (like Shisha smoking, henna tattooing, falconry, etc.), BBQ buffet dining, and traditional entertainment shows.

Places to See in Dubai in May

Burj Khalifa

It’s not just the world’s tallest building, but also the most prestigious Dubai landmark. There are two observation decks at its 124th and 148th levels, which promise you the most stunning vantage point to experience the sheer enormity and unrivaled charm of its skyline, desert, and ocean. It’s not all about views; you can take the fastest-ever elevator ride and also watch a multimedia presentation highlighting Dubai’s past.

The Dubai Mall

While malls and shopping centers are nothing special in Dubai, the Dubai Mall stands out among all of them, being the biggest of its kind in the world. It has over 1200 outlets, and these are apart from some great leisure and entertainment attractions such as Dubai Aquarium and Underwater Zoo, Play DXB, KidZania, Dubai Ice Rink, etc.

Burj Al Arab

Opened two decades ago, the Burj Al Arab continues to be one of Dubai’s perennial attractions. Rightly so, it’s one of the world’s most expensive hotels and is also considered the world’s only seven-star hotel. Can’t imagine a stay here but still want to catch a glimpse of its luxurious interiors? We would suggest you sign up for a guided Inside Burj Al Arab tour or reserve a breakfast or afternoon tea session at one of its premium dining venues, surrounded by the most exquisite views.

Dubai Frame

Best Road Trips in the UAE

1. Kalba

Starting from Dubai – Al Ain Road and then making its way through Sharjah Kalba Road, a trip to Kalba, nestled on the UAE’s east coast and close to Fujairah, rewards you with splendid views of the Gulf of Oman. Along the way, take in the breathtaking scenery, shifting from Sharjah’s cultural sights to the craggy desert terrain to the mesmerizing mountain bends. The main attraction is Khor Kalba, boasting one of the Arabian Peninsula’s oldest mangrove forests. With facilities for activities like canoeing and kayaking and an exclusive play area for kids, it promises you a mind-blowing getaway. Stretching for more than seven kilometers, this tidal creek is a favorite of nature enthusiasts and bird watchers.

Distance from Dubai: 150 km

Approximate Travel time: 2 hours

2. Jebel Jais, Ras Al Khaimah

Want to escape Dubai’s buzz for some sheer adventure, unrivaled serenity, and refreshing experiences? This is one of the best road trips that you must take from Dubai during the Eid Al Adha holidays. After you reach Ras Al Khaimah via a 1.5-hour drive from Dubai, a compelling ride that extends for about 60 kilometers will head you up to Jebel Jais. It is the UAE’s highest mountain peak, at an altitude of over 1930 meters above sea level. You can try trekking, enjoy cycling along the mountainous tracks, and, of course, sightsee from the country’s highest vantage point. If these aren’t enough to satiate your wild side, there is Jais Flight; it is the world’s longest zipline, perched at a height of about 1680 meters.

Distance from Dubai: 170 kilometers

Approximate Travel Time: 2.5 hours

3. Al-Ain

Looking for a relatively quick escape during the Eid Al Adha Dubai holidays? Enjoy a 120-kilometer picturesque drive along the Dubai-Al Ain highway to reach Al Ain. You can complete this drive in less than two hours. Abu Dhabi’s second-largest city, Al Ain, is more fondly referred to as the Garden City. It comes with all the makings of a tranquil break, thanks to its dramatic settings teeming with a lot of scenic, historic, and cultural attractions. Al Jahili Fort, Al Ain Zoo, Hili Archaeological Park, and Sheikh Zayed Palace Museum are some of the best places to visit in Al Ain. The city is also the doorway to an extended exploration of several other attractions like Jebel Hafeet, one of the UAE’s tallest mountains. Simply follow the signs to take a fascinating, winding drive up to the mountain. At a height of 1,240 meters, the pinnacle of Jebel Hafeet is incredibly intimidating, and it would leave you spellbound with breathtaking views spread across both the UAE and Oman. Book Al Ain city sightseeing tours with Rayna Tours for the ultimate experience.

Translated as the Green Mountain and perched at a height of over 2,000 meters, the route that leads to this region comprising the Saiq Plateau is both scenic and thrilling, making it ideal for outdoor and nature enthusiasts alike. We recommend that you take a guided tour to make the most of your Jebel Akhdar trip.

Distance from Dubai: 410 kilometers

Approximate time travel: 5 hours

6. Dalma Island

A visit to Dalma Island is not your usual road trip, making it one of the most unique things to do in Abu Dhabi. It takes you on an enchanting tour of the past and present. Interestingly, it is accessible only by a short flight from Abu Dhabi or an approximately two-hour ferry ride from Jebel Dhanna, which is around 320 kilometers from Dubai. But knowing you’re in one of the UAE’s best-kept secrets will be an enthralling experience. Soak up the ethereal charm and refreshing air of this region lost in time. Once a major center of pearl diving, it has been inhabited for more than 7,000 years. With a population of not more than 5000 people, Dalma Island assures a refreshing and inspiring break, which also gives you a slice of the UAE’s maritime heritage.

Distance from Dubai: Approximately 430 kilometers

Approximate travel time: 5 hours 30 minutes.

7. Al Gharbia

The stunning and diverse terrain of Al Gharbia, dotted with fabulous beaches, islands and several unique sights by way of historic forts, are among the lesser known gems of the UAE. So why not take an unforgettable ride during the Eid Al Adha Dubai break to uncover the secrets of this region, which interestingly accounts for the major portion of the emirate of Abu Dhabi. The place not only stands out for its striking diversity and rich history that traces its origin back to more than 8000 years, but also for its several intriguing cultural activities and heritage festivals. Besides a venue for several events like Tel Moreeb Festival and Watersport Festival, the place hosts the Al Dhafrah Festival with a camel beauty contest, which is one-of-its-kind in the world. In fact, a jaunt across Al Gharbia offering a unique blend of stupefying desert views and mind-boggling coastal scenery will for sure provide you with a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Distance from Dubai: 340 kilometers

Approximate time travel: 3.5 hours

8. Sir Bani Yas Island

Peppered with an array of attractions to appease wildlife aficionados, nature lovers, history buffs, and thrill seekers, Sir Bani Yas Island is one of Al Gharbia’s enthralling desert islands. And getting here may appear to be a bit hectic, but it’s still worth all the efforts. A long drive from Dubai, covering some of the most remarkable terrain, will transport you to Jebel Dhanna, from where you should take a 30-minute ferry ride to access the island. The focal point of the island is Arabian Wildlife Park, a safe sanctuary for thousands of freely roaming animals like cheetahs, gazelles, Arabian oryxes, etc. Another of its fascinating attractions is the Christian Monastery, which is believed to have been here since 600 AD. It is also home to a luxurious desert resort by Anantara.

Distance from Dubai: 290 kilometers

Approximate time travel: 4 hours

9. Hatta

Long weekends in Dubai can’t get better than a visit to Hatta, less than a two-hour drive from Dubai. This further makes it a quick getaway for those seeking a much-needed break during their Eid break. Hatta retreats you to a world away from the city’s chaos and crowds. It is a mountain town whose age-old grace is still retained in its original glory. Besides the ancient fort and well-preserved dwellings, there is Hatta Wadi Hub, a dream-come-true sport for thrill seekers.

Distance from Dubai: 135 kilometers

Approximate time travel: 90 minutes

10. Buraimi

Buraimi may be in Oman, but it is just a two-hour drive away from Dubai, making it one of the most convenient road trips to take during the Eid Al Adha holidays. It borders the UAE’s garden city, Al Ain, and will surely delight you with its verdant landscapes and refreshing pools. Immerse yourself in its old-world allure and visit attractions as fascinating as Buraimi National Park, Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque, Al Khandaq Fort, and Al Buraimi Sports Complex.

Distance from Dubai: 170 kilometers

11. Al Wathba Fossil Dunes

UAE’s deserts are not all the same. You would be stunned to see how strikingly different the Al Wathba Fossil Dunes in Abu Dhabi are from the Dubai deserts. Taking a road trip from Dubai to this spot in Abu Dhabi offers a dramatic change in the scenery during your journey. It feels fantastically otherworldly when you leave behind a metallic modern city, a scenery of modern times and wind your way to a location that appears like a scene from a sci-fi movie!  The surreal landscape is dotted with dramatic wind-swept the typical rolling dunes of Dubai’s desert. The drive from Dubai offers breathtaking vistas along Sheikh Zayed Road/E11 and Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan International Road. As you turn into Al Ain Truck Road, the city vibes fade away and you are left in the mesmerising solitude of a rocky, beautiful slice of nature. Al Wathba Fossil Dunes provides a serene setting to explore well-lit 3-km trails, perfect for photography or soaking in nature’s beauty, especially at sunset when the dunes glow in vibrant hues. Just 45-minute drive from Abu Dhabi city or 2 hours from Dubai, it is the perfect spot for an instant change in scenery for self-drive trip lovers.

Perfect for an impromptu day out, Ajman offers a refreshing mix of culture, nature, and beach vibes. It is a refreshing journey without the overwhelm of tourist crowds which you cannot escape in Dubai.  In a very short time, this road journey captures the contrast between Dubai’s futuristic scenery to Ajman’s quieter coastal charms. The rapid shift from Dubai’s towering, cosmopolitan cityscapes to Ajman’s low-key ambiance is striking – a perfect antidote to escape the glamourous life of Dubai and enjoy time in a less touristy emirate. The trip is smooth, taking you mostly over the Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311), which provides a pleasant drive and a fascinating transition in scenery that makes it a compelling adventure for you.

• Pack comfortable clothing as the temperature and weather in Dubai in June can reach 40 degrees Celsius. But as you spend more time in the intensely air-conditioned attractions, don’t forget to pack a lightweight jacket or cardigan.
• Also, carry sunscreen, hats, etc., for your summer Dubai outdoor trips or water activities like jet skiing, banana boat rides, and parasailing.

Things to Know Before Visit Dubai in June

What to Pack for Dubai in June

Voltage and Plug Type: Knowing about the right plug type is crucial anywhere you go in the world. Carry Type G plug sockets with 230 volts AC and 50 Hz frequency or an international travel adapter to save your electronics from getting damaged in Dubai.

Currency: The UAE’s national currency is UAE dirhams. Though international credit cards, debit cards, and forex cards can be widely used, it is best to keep UAE dirhams in hand for local and petty purchases.

Mobile Network and Data: Plan in advance which network service provider in Dubai is ideal for your holiday. You can pre-book a SIM card or make use of the free SIM card provided upon your arrival in Dubai. You can recharge these SIM cards with the necessary data as per your usage.

First Aid Kit: Always keep a first-aid kit in your bag for emergencies. The essentials should include antiseptic lotions, band-aids, electrolyte sachets, and pain-relieving ointments for sores and aches. If you are carrying medicines, you should have a prescription from a doctor vouching for them, as there are chances Dubai immigration may not allow you to carry medications into the emirate if you do not have a proper prescription.

Travel Insurance: This is a non-negotiable essential as it can get you out of any unforeseen financial sticky situations if they arise during your Dubai holiday. Travel insurance is a mandatory requirement to get a Dubai visa.

A Day Backpack: Pack a light shoulder bag that consists of your important travel documents, passports, visas, and cash. Carry your mobile charger and a power bank as well, so that you do not face any interruptions in communication.

Emergency contacts: The moment you start using the phone in Dubai, feed in all the Dubai emergency numbers in your phone for quick use in case of any emergencies. Print out a list of Dubai’s emergency numbers and keep them with your passport and other travel documents.

What to wear in Dubai in June

• Your luggage should be packed with lightweight, airy clothes for visiting Dubai in June. The temperature rises during the day and dips during the night. So accordingly, you should pack breathable clothes. Add layers, such as shrugs or a light jacket, when you visit intensely air-conditioned malls or other indoor attractions.
• Modest and appropriate clothing is recommended at religious sites and places that insist on obeying a dress code. Swimwear is allowed only on certain beaches and inside water parks.
• Carry elegant evening attire if you plan to enjoy an evening at the Dubai Opera or any high-end fine dining restaurants with dress codes in place.
• For evening desert safaris, go for long-flared pants and linen or cotton tops. Add a shawl or jacket, as deserts can get chilly at night. Make sure you wear comfortable, closed shoes on your safari excursion.
• Sunglasses, hats, and scarves should be included in your luggage, no matter what time of the year you are traveling to Dubai.

Getting Around Dubai in June

• You can get around in Dubai with state-of-the-art, modern modes of transportation. The most popular mode of transfer, Dubai Metro, is liked by locals and visitors alike. The Dubai Metro stretches 75 kilometers, allowing you to navigate the city through its two lines: the Red and Green Lines. Dubai Metro is the world’s first driverless metro line and takes you to all of Dubai’s iconic spots with ease, comfort, and on time!
• Dubai taxis are the next best option that visitors like to avail of for a comfortable commute within the emirate. The Dubai Taxi Corporation offers an amazing fleet of red-roof-top cars, which you can hail from anywhere and pay a standard fee. However, the cost is relatively higher than that of metro and bus rides. You can also book private cabs from mobile apps such as Careem or Uber if you don’t want to go through the trouble of hailing a taxi, but it will weigh a bit more on your pocket.
• Dubai is also well connected via public buses; they take you to those places that Dubai Metro does not have a reach. The Road and Transport Authority in Dubai provides over 119 internal lines, some of which are linked to Dubai Metro stations. All the buses you board in Dubai are air-conditioned, super spacious, spotless, convenient, and wheelchair-friendly.

Manousheh Pizza: This Lebanese-style pizza made of stretched flatbread, hand-tossed and baked to perfection, and served with delicious toppings of zaatar herbs and Akkawi cheese is in high demand in Dubai as a favorite street food. Don’t miss the chance to tuck into one during your holiday.

Kebabs: How can you miss the eclectic array of kebabs in Dubai? Be it a food stall or a chic dining venue, the menu will always feature an assortment of Dubai’s favorite snacks, Kebabs. Sink your teeth into some juicy, crispy chicken tikka kebabs, mutton seekh kebabs, bakhtiyari kebabs, and chelo kebabs, to name a few.

Al Machboos: If you are searching for a wholehearted, non-vegetarian Arabian meal, check out Al Machboos, a medley of aromatic rice seasoned with spices and loaded with meat or seafood.

Ouzi: A hearty meal of rice garnished with spices and saffron topped with slow-roasted meat is a dish you would find at every celebration in the Emirati community. Savor the best flavors infused in this dish with a twist of contemporary culinary essence and presentation when you dine at opulent restaurants serving this dish, such as Siraj and Al Khayma Heritage Restaurant.

Luqaimat: To finish off your delicious dinner, treat yourself to fried balls drenched in sugary syrup infused with saffron. It’s very tempting and finger-licking good. You wouldn’t settle for just a few of them.

Gold-dusted culinary treats : Now, why would you want to miss a regal treat when in Dubai? If you have the budget to blow, try some of the quirkiest but expensive food in Dubai with pure, edible gold sprinkled or infused in it. Amid Dubai’s extravagant dining scene, Burj Al Arab’s dining venues stand class apart. Try the 24K Gold Cappuccino at Burj Al Arab’s signature restaurant – Sahr Eddar. There are also Indian curries garnished with gold leaves at Bombay Borough and Kashkan. Dhaba Lane’s Gold Kulfi is the perfect dessert for anybody who wants a little sparkle in their sweet treat.  This isn’t something you have to do, but it is absolutely an unforgettable, one-of-a-kind occasion. While not unique to Dubai, the city certainly pulls it off with style. Even if it’s simply a coffee or a dessert, only Dubai can make it seem extravagantly rich.
