TL;DR
Travelers find Sharm El Sheikh particularly convenient as a package-holiday destination. Summer heat can be intense, including indoors, so spring and autumn are generally considered more comfortable.
Sharm El Sheikh is chosen particularly for its sea; a traveler comparing it with Vietnam considered Sharm’s sea a clear advantage of the destination.
An August trip to Egypt can be uncomfortable because of extreme heat; one traveler reported that even the room felt hard to breathe in. If you do not tolerate heat well, choose summer dates carefully.
Spring and autumn are described as the more familiar and comfortable seasons for an Egypt beach break, rather than summer. They are a practical alternative to August heat.
A package holiday is recommended for Sharm El Sheikh: flights, hotel and the main arrangements are bundled, making it easy to focus on the holiday.
