TL;DR

March in El Gouna can bring cool, rainy days, so swimming may not always be comfortable. Travelers report using the open-sea beach near the 5th and 6th building areas more often than the lagoon.

What the community said

For a March trip, El Gouna works well if you want walks and activities beyond the hotel when the sea feels too cool. Some days can be rainy and not ideal for swimming.

March

The lagoon may be fine for a brief dip, but travelers preferred the open-sea section on the side of the 5th and 6th buildings for proper swimming.

5th and 6th building areas

Even in July, some guests used the lagoon only once and spent the rest of their time swimming in the sea near the 5th and 6th buildings. When booking, check whether the property has easy access to the open sea.
