The Dhofar region (Salalah) has a subtropical climate between October - May with average temperatures of 30º C. But from June to September this region is exposed to the southeast monsoon that results in a lush green climate with temperatures around 23º C. Oman has 360 days of sun per year.

Oman is a Muslim country thus it is important to observe a certain dress code. In public places, women should wear garments that cover their upper arms and legs. They should not appear in public dressed in shorts, tight trousers, bare-backed or low-cut dresses. Men should wear long trousers and shirts. Shorts and sun tops should only be worn at the beach or by the pool.

When swimming in public places such as beaches and wadis, please wear T-shirt and shorts; this applies for women and men.
We recommend that you wear loose comfortable clothing as it will be warm. Comfortable foot wear for walking is advisable. Desert visitors should have caps, sunscreen (sunscreen is recommended all over the countries as well especially in the hot weather).
