5 Fantastic Things to Do in Dubai This Summer

The summer season is a sultry one and in Dubai it starts from April and continues till October. The normal average daily temperature marks up to 48-50 degree centigrade. And sometimes unpredictable sand storms make the heat extremely unbearable. Most people look out for various ways to beat the heat cleverly. While some people love to spend time with family in places like shopping malls, rooftop restaurants, lovely floral gardens or just driving around the city, others totally shun away from stepping outside and prefer shopping online.

Here are some of the fantastic things that one can try to do in Dubai and enjoy the Summer season in its full form:

Water Sports: When we are in sweltering summer season, we always feel like being surrounded by water. Water reduces the temperature of our body and we all feel good while being drenched in it. So, indulging into various kinds of watersports like para sailing, jet ski, surfing, deep sea diving etc would be suggested. Other than the water sports, every weekend or once in every month you can experience the Dubai RIB boat cruise, Dubai speedboat Palm Jumeirah cruise, or the Jet Ski tour of Dubai. Your kids would love these rides for sure. Dubai Dolphinarium or fishing tours would also be a relaxing activity to do in summer season.

Visiting the Jumeirah Mosque: One of the most beautiful mosques not only in Dubai but also in the world is the Jumeirah Mosque. The most striking feature of this mosque is that it allows non-Islamic population in its premises. People love visiting this mosque for its serene beauty which stands strong with white stones built in the medieval Fatimid tradition. The day look is entirely different from the evening one. In the evening thousands of lights light up the mosque and that highlights the intricate beauty even more. Another important feature of this mosque is that in the 500 Dirhams currency note, a picture of Jumeirah mosque shines with pride. Located on the Jumeirah beach road, you can pay a visit here and spend some lovely time with your friends and family.

 Ski Dubai in Mall of Emirates: This is the most interesting thing to do in Dubai to beat the heat waves and enjoy every moment of it. It is located inside the Mall of Emirates in Dubai and has an eighty five (85) meters high indoor mountain. Bring in your friends, relatives, and family and spend some awesome time here. Skiing and snowboarding are the most popular games here. You can build up your own Snowman here and penguins are also found.

Burj Khalifa and other places of interest: If you don’t have acrophobia or the fear of height, you can plan a visit at the top of the world’s tallest building and check out how beautiful Dubai really is. In MI: Ghost Protocol, Tom Cruise performed a breath-taking stunt from this building and the popularity of this edifice have increased more than before. Apart from Burj Khalifa, you can also take a tour of the Ferrari World, Yas Island, Abu Dhabi (not very far away from Dubai), Miracle Gardens, Dolphin Bay, or the Dubai Marina Yacht Club.

Shopping and dining at The Dubai Mall: One can never get bored while shopping and that too in Dubai. This is the most happening city of the world and may be in the coming few years it would be the biggest financial capital of the world. The biggest shopping mall of the world is “The Dubai Mall” and you would find all fancy and expensive things here in Dubai. All the world renowned brands are found here with their latest editions. Gucci, Armani, Chanel, Cartier, Christian Louboutin, Level Shoes, Apple, Bose, Bobby Brown, Bvlgari, Chloe, etc. Now once you are done with the shopping spree, you must try the fabulous food here. Social House, Al-Hallab, Eat Greek, Karam Express, Kebab Grill 44, etc. are some of the notable restaurants here.

Summer season is a tough one but when you can do all these great things, you would fall in love with this time of the year for sure.
