TL;DR
At busy Egypt resorts, beach sunbeds can be taken by 6:00–7:00 am, so arrive around sunrise if you want a front-row spot. The most comfortable sea time is morning until noon and again after about 3:00 pm, with the hottest hours spent indoors or in the shade.
For a beach sunbed, arrive around 5:30–6:50 am: many guests watch the sunrise and claim the best spots then. After 7:00 am, choices on a popular resort beach may already be limited.
A practical sea-day routine is swimming from about 8:00 am to 12:30 pm, then having lunch and resting indoors during peak heat. Return to the water after 3:00 pm and stay until swimming closes.
Check the sea-closing time with the lifeguard: a typical schedule stops swimming at around 6:00 pm, often before dark. If tightly packed beach loungers are uncomfortable, base yourself by the pool and walk to the sea for swims.
