Weather in Kuwait City

Best time to visit

Kuwait City has a hot desert climate.

With daytime temperatures in excess of 45°C (113°F), Kuwait City experiences some of the hottest temperatures on earth in the summer (June to September). June and July also bring strong winds and heavy dust storms that can last for a few days.

Autumn (October to November) is also hot with temperatures hovering around 30°C (86°F). Heavy thunderstorms may occur from time to time, bringing relief.

Winter (December to February) sees temperatures drop quite substantially, hitting between 13°C (55°F) and 20°C (68°F). This is the best time to visit Kuwait City. Between November and February is the camel racing season so come to the At-Atraf Camel Racing Club to enjoy this spectacular. February also sees the month-long Hala Festival roll into town, bringing the city to life with live music, poetry recitals and art.

Spring (end of February to May) is another great time to visit Kuwait City. The temperatures are more bearable and the humidity is less intense.
