Why Doha in junio

It's the least humid month of the year (41%) but the heat hovers around 41°C — so the plan is indoors: the National Museum of Qatar, the Museum of Islamic Art and the big malls.

Low season leaves the luxury hotels of West Bay and The Pearl at rock-bottom rates, with Gulf views for a fraction of what they cost in winter.

Hawksbill turtle hatchling release season begins at Fuwairit, where the Ministry of Environment sends the newborns out to sea — one of the country's great natural spectacles.
