Local context
What to expect in October
🎯 Shoulder season — good value with reasonable accommodation prices Autumn in Jeddah is often underrated: 35°C, golden light and declining crowds. An interesting window. Rain is virtually absent (3% of days) — ideal for planning without a backup. Not the best window, but acceptable if dates are constrained. January (9.1/10) is significantly better if possible.
