This article is for those people who are considering whether to go to Egyptian resorts to relax in the middle of summer and are looking for the answer to the question of what temperature is there at that time. In Egypt, in July you can literally go crazy from the heat! It can only be hotter in the sauna, and even in a Russian bath. However, many people like it when it's hotter, so we are not going to dissuade anyone. In addition, the weather conditions in Egypt in different areas are somewhat different from each other. The main thing is to decide exactly where to go.
Average temperature
In order not to be unfounded, we quote the official weather data: "The average temperature in Egypt in July is + 35-40 ° ." But these are average indicators, therefore it can be hotter. Sometimes it even reaches + 48 ° C, and this is in the shade. Can you imagine how much it is in the sun?
And there is nothing surprising here, because at this time of year and in the middle zone of Russia it is very warm. Summer is summer! The temperature of sea water in July in Egyptian resorts ranges from +25 to + 28 ° . Lower values refer to the Mediterranean Sea. But usually they come to rest on Krasnoe, because all the famous places for rest are located there. Another feature of summer Egypt - there is no rain there at this time of year. That is, you can not wait for the sky to suddenly be cloudy and life-giving moisture will spill from above.
Hurghada or Sharm El Sheikh
As already mentioned, the temperature in Egypt in July is different in different places. In general, if you go to Egypt at this time of the year, it is better to Hurghada. The fact is that there the wind constantly blows from the sea. In brochures, it is always affectionately called the "sea breeze." In the winter months, this circumstance is rather a minus than a plus, but in the summer it is very nice when such a natural fan constantly works.
But in Sharm el-Sheikh there is almost complete calmness, because this place is surrounded on all sides by mountains. Therefore, it is hotter than in Hurghada. When tourists talk about Egypt in July, the reviews are just the opposite. Perhaps those who were dissatisfied simply went the wrong way. In Sharm el Sheikh, in our opinion, it is best to go in the winter.
How to deal with heat
When you go to rest for 10-15 days, it is difficult during this time to fully acclimatize. Therefore, those people who are in poor health, or young children in the middle of summer on the African continent should not meddle. And young and strong enough to follow a few rules, and then the abundance of sun and heat will not be able to spoil the rest.
First, avoid alcohol! Secondly, drink more than simple clean water, five liters a day will be quite enough. Well, and thirdly, wear cotton clothing, lightweight, but at the same time closed. Take the example of the Bedouins - they always dressed in spacious shirts that perfectly protected them from the sun, on the one hand, and on the other, allowed air to freely blow around the body. In general, although the temperature in Egypt in July is extreme, you can get used to it. In addition, the hotel rooms are equipped with air conditioning, so that you can relax during the night, and in the morning - back to battle! The main thing is that the hotel is located on the first line, so that it is not far from a cool room to the beach and the sea.
How to behave at sea, so as not to burn
Some inexperienced vacationers, realizing that the weather in Egypt in July is very hot, prefer not to crawl out of the sea. And here lies the main danger! Sea water does not protect against sunlight. And even vice versa: water droplets on the skin work like lenses. You can get very severe sunburn. Therefore, knowledgeable people are advised to swim in T-shirts or t-shirts. Well, of course, you must definitely use a protective cream. These simple rules can save you from serious trouble.
