When to fly
The city of Hurghada features a sub-tropical desert climate, which makes the winters very mild and warm, and the summers very hot. July is the hottest month in the city. December to February are warm, November to April slightly warmer and May to September are hot or very hot. Sea temperatures range from 21 to 28 degrees.
The best time to visit Hurghada is probably between October and April, when temperatures range from 20-30 degrees and it’s sunny. If a holiday of pure relaxation is your main priority when booking your flights to Hurghada, consider taking part in the various workshops and demonstrations available during March at Egyptโs Yoga festival. The event is hosted by renowned yoga experts that are there to teach you the benefits of yoga and you can also enjoy taking part in the classes yourself. This is peak-time in the city as is the festive season and school holiday periods, therefore it is harder to find a cheap flight to Hurghada and cheap accommodation.
As Hurghada is one of the best wind sports destinations in the world, every October the city hosts a Yacht Racing and Water Skiing Festival which attracts a high number of local and international yachtsmen and water-skiers. If the festival inspires you to try out the sport yourself, Hurghadaโs coastline has large and shallow lagoons with flat waters which provide perfect conditions for water-ski beginners.
During summer, cheap flights to Hurghada are easier to find but the city is very hot so if you want to enjoy desert and other outdoor excursions it is best not to go during this time. Summer is a great time for ocean lovers to enjoy diving, snorkelling and angling along the coastline.
Tourists must be wary that throughout September is the cultural festival of Ramadan when Muslims fast between dusk and dawn which may affect businesses and restaurants in the town if you plan on eating out.
