How to Enjoy The Winter Season in Dubai

September 25, 2023
2023-09-25
Dubai is one of the best winter destinations out there. Not only is the temperature just right, but the city has a lot to offer too. When you want to escape the snowy lands that have become your hometown this time of year, Dubai is the perfect place. Here, the cold is just right and there are many things to do. You can go skiing (indoors, that is), for example, which is a winter holiday staple. You can go camping in the desert too, which is a great way to relax away from the city's hustle and bustle. And you can go to one of the biggest waterparks in the world, Atlantis The Palm Resort.

Go Skiing Indoors

The winter season is all about ski holidays, isn't it? In some parts of the world, yes, but in Dubai? Well, why not? The city offers indoor skiing, after all! Ski Dubai is undoubtedly one of the most popular attractions in the city. For those who get tired of the Middle East's signature heat, this snowy park is the perfect escape! Even more so for those who’ve traveled to Dubai in winter but miss the cold. Though you can't compare the slopes here to those near ski resort towns, it's still a fun and exciting place nonetheless.

Join The Dubai Marathon

Yes, you read that right! There's a Dubai Marathon. Though it's not as famous as the Boston or Paris Marathons, it's still a highly anticipated event in its own right. It's also one of the very few of its kind held in winter. While the rest of the world is too cold for running outside, the sunny Middle East provides the perfect atmosphere. Especially Downtown Dubai, where the marathon takes place. Every year, over 30,000 participants from around the world join the prestigious race, with thousands more on the sidelines cheering them on.

Check Out The Dubai Safari Park

Winter often means that animals hibernate or go south, doesn't it? Well, not in Dubai! Though the city is colder than normal around this time of year, the temperature is still high enough that you can go to the Dubai Safari Park. And you better take this opportunity too because the park houses a number of such fascinating species. You can meet some of the most exotic animals and the most magnificent creatures, displayed in all their glory. It's a great way to spend a winter day in Dubai, whether you're on your own, with friends, family, or just with your special someone!
