Kuwait climate for short

Kuwait get one of di hottest climate for dis world. Summer dey brutal, winter dey soft, so your trip dey depend well well on di calendar. Na two real season dey: long, hot-pass-pepper summer and short, sweet cool season.

Di best months: November to March

  • December and January dey coolest, sometimes e fit reach near 8 degrees for night.
  • Rain no too dey fall, but if e go fall, na between November and February.
  • Carry light jacket for evening, especially near water.

Shoulder season: October and April

October and April na in-between period. Di worst heat don pass or never come yet, hotel prices fit soft small, and major attractions no too crowd. April fit still surprise you with hot afternoon, so plan indoor activities like The Avenues mall or Sheikh Abdullah Al-Salem Cultural Centre for midday.

When to avoid: June to September

Summer for Kuwait too much. Temperature dey pass 45 degrees Celsius regularly, e don even reach 50 before. Di dusty *toz* sandstorm dey peak early summer, and di *simoom* hot wind fit make outside no safe for afternoon. Locals dey stay indoor, life dey shift to air-conditioned malls. Only come for summer if business force you.
