Traveller notes on Ras Al Khaimah in November
Notes from nearby Dubai (102 km away)
Ras Al Khaimah doesn't have its own notes for November yet — these are about Dubai, close enough to share the season.
November is the month Dubai's forum recommends without hedging: highs around 31°C falling to about 19 overnight, humidity low, and effectively no rain — a fraction of an inch across the entire month. Early-to-mid November also carries the year's lowest odds of sandstorms or dusty air. Regulars say the evenings are finally comfortable enough to sit outside, and that long trousers work fine even when jeans feel heavy; the one recurring complaint is that late nights can turn humid enough to bring fog.
Other months in Ras Al Khaimah
Ras Al Khaimah's forum calls early March a great time to visit — low-to-mid 30s°C with clear sunshine most days and a warm sea, cooling into the low 20s at night, comfortable for dining outdoors. Regulars flag RAK as having somewhat more variable weather than nearby Dubai and Sharjah, with the occasional strong wind day capable of closing beach access — a light sweater covers the evening chill.
