For the cooler nights or trips near water or in the desert, make sure to pack a pair of long pants/long skirt and a sweater. A light jacket is good to have along as well for the cooler mornings.


Things to Do in Dubai During February

It's not very likely to get warm this month, but there should be plenty of sun in February, making this a good time to take a pay-what-you-wish Dubai walking tour.

February is the month of the Taste of Dubai festival, giving you the chance to try out some of the best food in the city while enjoying live music at the Dubai Media City Amphitheatre.

Alternatively, it's almost always a good time to visit the many theme parks in Dubai such as IMG Worlds of Adventure, LEGOLAND, Bollywood Parks, and Motiongate, all of which are included with the Go City Dubai Pass.
