Home to some of the best restaurants in the world, a vast range of cuisine is on offer from traditional Middle Eastern Mezze to Michelin Star European delicacies. Nightlife varies and is usually confined to the luxury hotels, however they do not disappoint and are a favourite of the world’s elite looking to party under the stars on balmy Middle Eastern evenings.
Temperatures in the emirate drop considerably from a peak of about 45C in July and the humidity starts to dissipate, so is perfect for a private yacht winter getaway when the days are warm enough to take a dip in the Arabian Sea but considerably cooler in the evening. Winter is also when emiratis participate in traditional events, including weekend evening gatherings at the heritage villages to recite poetry or dance the Liwa and Ayyalah – popular Khaleeji folk dances from the Arabian peninsula.
