Hala Summer in Qatar kicks off (May 1 to September 30): hotel deals, indoor shows and air-conditioned attractions to beat the heat.

It's the hottest month of the year (highs of 41.5°C and nights that don't drop below 29°C) — the city lives after dark and under air conditioning.

Heat and humidity peak and sandstorms are common — August is best enjoyed entirely indoors, among museums, aquariums and theme parks like Doha Quest.
