Oman

What's the weather like in Oman in March?

Found in the Middle East bordering the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia, the weather in Oman is warm and sunny all year round. The country has a dry desert climate, bringing sweltering hot summers and more comfortable winters. In March, things are starting to heat up after the cooler period, although temperatures are much more bearable compared to the peak of summer. March is a great time to visit Oman if you want to enjoy hot beach weather, away from the scorching summertime.
