The short answer
When to go to Fujairah
The best months are December to February, with mild days and cool nights that suit forts, parks and the coast, and November and March are close behind. April and October are hot but workable in the early morning. From May to September the heat and humidity are severe, and rare heavy rain has caused flooding, so limit outdoor plans. Older travellers will be most comfortable in winter and should still keep sightseeing to the morning.
