October to April (Peak Season): Ideal weather with temperatures 20-28°C, low humidity, and clear skies. Minimal rainfall, perfect for water sports and outdoor activities. Busiest tourist season with higher prices and crowded attractions.
May to September (Summer Season): Hot temperatures reaching 35-40°C, intense UV radiation, and calm waters. Lower prices and fewer tourists. Challenging conditions for land activities but excellent for diving with exceptional visibility. Requires heat management and hydration.
Shoulder Seasons (Early October, Late April): Moderate temperatures 25-32°C and fewer crowds. Good compromise between comfort and avoiding peak season crowds and prices. Weather generally stable for outdoor activities.
Avoid: July-August offers scorching heat making outdoor sightseeing challenging. Ramadan affects restaurant hours and alcohol availability, though not prohibitive for tourists.
