ATTIRE & ESSENTIALS

WEATHER

In October, temperatures in Oman hover around an average of 30°C, reaching highs of 35°C in the afternoons and dipping to 25°C after dark. With hot weather through the day and night, you’ll certainly be grateful for air conditioning at your hotel.

For the month of October usually the forecast is 10mm of rain, so it’s very unlikely you’ll experience any wet weather this month. Meanwhile, the waters of the Gulf of Oman are warm at circa 29°C and ideal for swimming and snorkelling.
