The best times to go to Hurghada, for swimming, diving and sunbathing, are the month of April and from mid-October to mid-November. Summer is really hot, and if the sea is pleasantly warm and you can enjoy long dives (especially in August and September), outdoor activities during the day and even sunbathing can be difficult.
In winter the stay can be enjoyable, and the temperature is often sufficient for sunbathing, although the days are quite short and sometimes it can be a bit cold, and as we saw the sea is a bit cool.
