Best time to visit Egypt weather-wise: which month is ideal?

One traveler considers November much better than March: the heat is milder while the sea remains warm.

For cooler air while keeping a warm sea, consider the end of October.

One traveler found Port Ghalib comfortable and less windy during the autumn school-break period than Marsa Alam in late August, when strong winds occurred at times.

One traveler shared that last year they visited Egypt in the third week of November, and the weather turned out to be better than in October, contrary to the common claim about wind picking up in late November.

Several travelers note that in November the air and water are still good, but wind picks up in the second half of the month, making the trip less comfortable toward the end of November.

In October and November it's always hot during the day, but visitors note that resorts are very crowded during this period.

Mid-October is considered by one traveler the best season: air around 30°C, water 27–28°C.

In the Nabq area there's a breeze this time, so one family chose October instead of their usual early-November trip; last year at the Rixos resort in early November it reached +38°C.

November is the ideal month with temperatures around 32–34°C and warm water. September and October can still hit 40°C, while August is brutal — up to 43°C during the day and 38–39°C at night.

October and November are great for those who prefer milder heat — temperatures are more comfortable and the sea is still warm. The downside is that prices tend to be slightly higher during this period.

May is a viable option but already getting warm. Winter can feel chilly for some visitors, while summer is simply too hot. October and November remain the most comfortable months for most travelers.
