1. When to Dive in Dubai
The best time to scuba dive in Dubai occurs typically between October and May as the water is pleasantly cool, ranging between 22°C and 28°C. In these months, underwater visibility is so great that you are better enabled to spot marine life easily and enjoy clear views of Dubai’s artificial reefs and shipwrecks.

Visits to these places give a person a very unique view of the underwater ecosystem of Dubai.
