Doha’s great for sunseekers thanks to year-round temperatures that rarely drop below the high teens. That being said, the summer months can be a bit intense with the mercury regularly topping out in the low 40s. February to April are probably the most comfortable months, when it’s usually between 20°C and 30°C.
