Is swimming comfortable in Sharm el-Sheikh in late October and early November, especially in Nabq Bay?

From messages by 4 participants in 2 sources · Last activity: 3 days ago

TL;DR

Past visitors reported around 32°C in the shade and 29°C in the water in Naama Bay in late October, with warm seawater in Nabq from October 26 to November 6. Account for shallow water in Nabq and check wind, waves and tide times when using a swimming pontoon; these are past experiences, not a forecast.

What the community said

Check local tide times if you plan to swim from a pontoon: one traveler observed calmer waves and less pontoon movement between tides. October rain in Sharm el-Sheikh was described as unusual, though weather can vary.

During a previous stay in Nabq from October 26 to November 6, the sea was warm and the breeze was intermittent rather than cold. A light shirt was enough in the evening. Shallow water near the accommodation limited swimming, so the travelers made several trips to Farsha Beach to swim and see fish.

A visitor to Naama Bay reported approximately 32°C in the shade and 29°C in the sea at the very end of October during a previous trip. This is a useful example of warm swimming conditions, not a guarantee for other dates.
