Climatology
Tropical Savanna climate (Köppen climate classification As). Salalah, despite lying close to the Arabian desert, enjoys a tropical climate through most of the year. The town is subjected to the south-west monsoons. This period (late June to early September) is known as the Khareef season. Visitors from across the Arabian Gulf States, mostly from the United Arab Emirates, and Saudi Arabia flock to Salalah to enjoy the monsoon and avoid the harsh heat faced by the rest of the region during the same period.
