I'm thinking of spending 5 days for my honeymoon here.

I wanted to know whether the heat is unbearable or not?

Tyler,

It's very hot, like 40c + every day, further, the humidity is also quite often 80/90% that makes it very uncomfortable. However lot's of individuals can cope with it.

In that case I'll probably give it a miss as that sounds way too hot for me to handle, lol

It's 40 degrees today (30 in the sea) - I don't find it unbearable in the day but at night time if you are out it isn't very nice.

It's interesting to see how inaccurate my windows sidebar temperature gauge is as this is currently reading 38c, I assumed it would be hotter than that.

Give Dubai a miss in Summer. It's just way too humid these days. Do Rome, that's a great honeymoon place.

I would say if you are going to lie on the beach or at the pool all day then it could be too hot but if you are out and about then it is not unbearable as the air con in Dubai is fierce!

It all very much depends on your tolerance to the heat. Mine is not good but we don't spend a lot of time at pool or beach. Basically a quick swim and off.But do not take my word for it as we go to Dubai becasue the hotels are so good and we also love shopping!!!!

Lots on here have gone for their honeymoon and had a blast. It will also depend when you want to go. May, June not too bad but July, August. September a bit hard going with the humidity!
