The climate of Al Ghaydah (Yemen)
Al Ghaydah is a small coastal town in the south-east of Yemen not far
from the border with Oman. The town is not big but has a tourist
information office and an internet café. Most tourists whom come
here are on their way through and have landed here on the local
airport to discover Yemen from here. Although Al Ghaydah is a
coastal town it does not have a large harbour and only small ships
can moor here. Al Ghaydah has a hot desert climate with little to no
precipitation. Here most precipitation generally falls in the height
of summer. The temperatures in Al Ghaydah show only few changes due
to which the difference between the summer- and winter months is not
very big. In the summer months the average temperature is just above
thirty degrees centigrade. In the winter months the average
temperature is just below that.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
