Best time to travel
Southern Oman has a monsoon season unlike other Gulf countries, and this lasts from June to September. Though you may not want to visit this particular area during the monsoons, October is a good time to visit Oman because in Dhofar everything is green and lush, and the rest of the country is pleasantly warm.
Climate
The varied topography/geography of Oman makes its climate varied too. Muscat is hot and very humid from mid March to October, and pleasantly warm from October to March (so no cool/cold weather for you in winter). In Muscat, temperatures go up to 40º C and above in May and June, while in winter temperatures are about 25º C. In the Salalah area temperatures reach 30º C in December. But monsoons bring rain to Southern Oman (Salalah) every year from June to September. The Dhofar area is very green and lush in October.
