About Kuwait
The Islamic Middle Eastern state of Kuwait, situated at the northwest extreme of the Persian Gulf, is somewhat overshadowed and overwhelmed by its neighbours Iran, Saudi Arabia, and especially war-torn Iraq. Nevertheless, the flat and featureless country is beginning to attract tourists and businessmen from the west, particularly Americans.
Those visiting Kuwait today are imbued with a lust for adventure that has nothing to do with adrenalin-producing experiences, but rather a yen to explore a not too radical fundamentalist Muslim culture and witness a country undergoing post-war reconstruction.
Despite the turbulence of its recent history, Kuwait today is once again beginning to reflect its status as an oil-rich nation.
Kuwait Climate and Weather
The climate of Kuwait is subtropical but arid, summers (between May and October) in particular being very hot and dry, temperatures ranging above 100 degrees Fahrenheit (40C). Summertime is also prone to sand storms, known as the "shamal".
The most pleasant months to travel to Kuwait are in winter, between November and April, when days are warm and sunny, although at night temperatures plummet and can be close to freezing. Rain is rare, but most falls between November and April.
