Hurghada in Summer vs Winter is a popular question among travelers planning a Red Sea holiday. Choosing the right season can make a big difference in your travel experience, from the weather to the type of activities you can enjoy.
In summer (June to August), Hurghada is hot and dry with temperatures reaching up to 42°C (108°F). It’s perfect for swimming, diving, and all-day boat trips. In contrast, winter (December to February) is cooler with 20–26°C, which is ideal for sightseeing and outdoor exploration.
During the summer, the city is full of water-based fun like snorkeling, parasailing, and beach lounging. Winter offers a calmer pace with historical excursions, shopping, and walks along the Hurghada Marina.
If you’re a young couple looking for sun and adventure, summer may suit you best. On the other hand, winter is more comfortable for families with kids and older travelers who enjoy moderate temperatures.
