TL;DR
Sharm el-Sheikh is extremely hot in June-July, reaching up to 45°C in July. The hottest hours are 12–15:00; use waterproof SPF 50+ sunscreen and consider a rash guard to protect your back.
The sea water in June is warm enough to dive straight in for most swimmers, though some may find it a bit cool at first.
July temperatures in Egypt can reach 45°C — extreme heat that may be unbearable for heat-sensitive travelers. Consider this carefully before booking a July trip.
In mid-June the heat is intense, especially between noon and 3 PM. Fair-skinned visitors should stay under a beach umbrella during peak hours. A rash guard or mesh swimsuit helps protect your back while swimming, and waterproof SPF 50+ sunscreen is a must.
