Excellent weather; peak season.
This guide explains what Dubai is like in February: the weather, how busy it is, what to plan and who the month suits. Figures are typical values from our destination research, so check a forecast before you travel.
Daytime highs reach about 25°C and lows about 16°C. Rainfall is around 25 mm for the month and humidity is about 64 percent. Excellent weather; peak season. February stays comfortable, with highs near 25°C and lows near 16°C. It has the most rain of any month, about 25 mm, but Dubai's rain is light, so it rarely disrupts sightseeing. Evenings are pleasant for waterfront walks.
February suits travellers who want reliable, comfortable weather for a full itinerary, including families and couples. It works well for a seven-day trip that adds Abu Dhabi and a beach day, since you can enjoy the outdoors almost all day.
February is a little warmer than January and a little cooler than March, which reaches about 28°C. It is still peak, so prices are higher than in March. If your dates are flexible, March offers very good weather and is usually better value.
Carry a light layer for the evening, when it drops to about 16°C, and spend long days outdoors. Book flights and hotels early, because demand is high. Choose a hotel with good Metro access, group sightseeing by area instead of crossing the city in one day, and confirm what your desert safari includes. Our packages are land-only, so flights are booked separately.

Excellent weather; peak season. Highs reach about 25°C, so plan outdoor activities for the cooler parts of the day where needed and keep indoor attractions as a backup. Compare neighbouring months before you decide.
Rain is light in February, around 25 mm for the month. Dubai is dry for most of the year, so rain rarely changes plans. Heat is the main planning issue, not rain, so pick your days and your hotel with that in mind.
Pack light, breathable clothing, sun protection and comfortable shoes, plus a light layer for evenings. Dress modestly for mosques and older districts, and carry a light cover-up for air-conditioned malls.
February is part of the peak season from December to February, so hotels and attractions cost more and need booking early. If the budget is tight, consider November or March, which have very good weather and are usually better value.
