What each season is good for

  • Cool season (December to February): the best time for a long guided tour, fishing, planting, animal feeding and an evening around a bonfire. It is also a lovely time to stay overnight in one of the farm's chalets.
  • In-between months (October, November, March and April): very good for day trips. Arrive early and plan the most active parts of your visit for the morning.
  • Summer (mid-May to late September): keep visits short and early in the day. Contact the farm before you book to check timings and which activities are running.

Choosing the time of day

Even in the cooler months, the middle of the day is the warmest. Mornings are the most comfortable time for walking the farm and feeding the animals. Average lows in December, January and February are around 12 to 14 °C,[1] so evenings can feel fresh, which is perfect for a bonfire but worth a light jacket.

Visiting in the hot months?

Drink water regularly, wear a hat and light, loose clothing that covers the arms, use sunscreen, and take breaks in the shade. Keep an eye on children and older visitors, who can be more affected by the heat.

Plan ahead for the cool season

The cooler months are the most comfortable time for families, schools and company groups to be outdoors, so it makes sense to request your date early. You can choose a family, school or corporate day trip, or turn your visit into a short break with a farm stay. For tips on the day itself, read our guide to planning a family farm day in Al Ain.
