Dead Sea sits in a desert climate in Jordan, and the 2015–2024 weather record gives its sunshine a clear shape: the April peak reaches a 99/100 sun score, with daytime highs around 30°C — a solid base for an outdoors-led escape.
The year runs from average lows of 14°C in January to highs of 39°C in July. On the rain ledger, July is the safest bet at a 0% chance of a wet day, while February climbs to 20%. If 24°C is your bar for proper warmth, count on March–November.
