The Reason Dubai Desert is 10 Degree Cooler than The City

Many people don’t realize that not only is it possible to travel to Dubai during summer but in the late afternoons, it is actually cooler in the desert than the city!
About two hours before the Arabian sunsets, the temperature in the desert begins to cool down quite rapidly. in fact, it can be as much as 7 to 10 degrees cooler than the city and the coast.
Sand is the main reason for the coolness in desert. There is a little moisture in sand which vanishes soon making the weather cool. In the night and mornings you can find desert really cool. Nomadic natives who lives in the deserts set their camps on dunes. They got the most experience how to make a better residency in desert areas. The tents are specifically designed to allow air to circulate within them, keeping them cool. Animal hair is also usually used to insulate the tents which keeps them cooler during the day.
