Best time to visit Salalah, Oman
June to August is considered to be the best time to visit Salalah because of the monsoon season. Light monsoon drizzles during this period make Salalah a wonderful place to be. This is also the time to indulge in the Salalah Tourism Festival that takes place from 15th July to 31st August every year.
