August Umrah Travel Guide

A summer pilgrimage rewards good preparation. Below are some of the "on-the-ground" tips for August weather, travelling in peak season, and the essentials worth packing, so you arrive ready and spend your energy on worship.

Weather in Makkah & Madinah During August

August is one of the hottest periods of the year for Saudi Arabia, and during the day, temperatures reach 40°C+ (104°F+) in Makkah and Madinah. A little planning goes a long way in keeping you safe and comfortable through your rituals:

•       Expect Extreme Heat – the most intense heat is in the middle of the day, so where you can, plan your Tawaf and outdoor walking in the morning or after sunset.

•       Stay Hydrated – drink water and Zamzam throughout the day, and always bring some water with you whenever you go, so you don't get dehydrated.

•       Dress for the Climate – wear shirts and other lightweight, airy fabrics and carry an umbrella/cap to wear during the brightest time of day when leaving the Haram.

•       Protect Against Sun Exposure – Wear sunscreen and sunglasses, and rest during the hottest times of the day heat exhaustion is often brought on by pushing through the hottest hours.

•       Pack up Health Essentials – rehydration salts, any medication you take, and comfortable shoes, since the ground itself gets hot, and you’ll be doing plenty of walking.
