Egypt in October 2025 – is it worth going to rest? Weather and reviews, air temperature and water temperature in Hurghada and Sharm El Sheikh, prices in hotels and excursions, are visas needed? And also: what to do and what to see in Egypt during October – in the Eurotraveler review.
Autumn … To relax at sea is the most blessed time!
A person who is accustomed to the realities of the northern and even most of Southern Europe, perhaps, will doubt the plausibility of such a postulate. But the one who had the opportunity to relax in Cyprus or in North Africa, undoubtedly, approvingly leaves his head in support of this thesis.
Without assumptions, of course, everyone has their own preferences. But most will support – the idea Extend your summer Rarely causes rejection.
Moreover, in many North African locations from June to September it is scary and to be. The sun is burning, praying about rain, and any attempt to climb into the sea is associated with overcoming an obstacle strip in the form of a hotel beach.
What is there-you will forget at home something from the list of things that are required to relax at sea-you will regret it a lot about it!
But in October, Egypt – we will not be about Tunisia and Morocco, they are slightly different – it becomes more adapted for the European’s stay. Moderately hot, and therefore much more in demand!
If in September a thin and timid brook of those who are confident in their own ability to withstand non -alternative heat flows on vacation in Egypt, then at the equator of autumn they willingly go to the African country families with children and pensioners. That is, people who love to warm up, but inclined to avoid extremely high temperatures and too active sun.
Weather in Egypt in October
Not inclined to fluctuations and fluctuations – this is exactly the case when statistics can be believed. Yes, and why doubt if every year the same picture is observed on the coast of the Red Sea?
The air temperature in Egypt in early October even during the day stubbornly and almost accurately draws a straight line in the interval +29-32 degrees. And her light slope at the end of the month is perceived by “with understanding.”
If you notice at all! And then, you are unlikely to begin to complain about the cooling if the thermometer in the morning shows “only” +26-28 ° C.
After sunset, it is worth expecting a slight decrease in air temperatures. Even at the start of October in Egypt at night, street thermometers are lowered to the area +24-26 ° C. At the end of the month, night temperatures are completely moved to more territory that applies to southern Europe-K +21-23 ° C.
Rains? In mid -autumn, they carefully bypass the North African desert, spread south of Cairo. In any case, any falling here from the sky moisture is perceived as a great good And even a small miracle. Yes, and finding reviews with the mention of this weather phenomenon in this place and at this time is almost impossible.
In view of this, there is a lot of ultraviolet radiation that you will extremely puzzle your skin if you go out in an open place without smearing a cream from a tan. Well, or not hiding behind something air, but not passing shock doses of solar radiation.
Compliance with such a dress code on vacation in Egypt in October- The thing is mandatory. Because, alas, today a strong tan for unusual people is unsafe.
- What needs to be taken with you to Egypt
North
We emphasize that the above refers to the coast of the Red Sea. To such resorts as Hurghada, Safag, Mars Ala or Sharm El Sheikh. In the Mediterranean Alexandria and Mers-Matrukha, weather condition is slightly different.
In particular, +30 ° C for October – upper temperature levelduring the day, the air usually warms up to +26-28 ° C. At night, sometimes noticeably cooler.
In the same Mers-Matrukh that 230 km west of Alexandria, after sunset, you may want to wear something more like a t-shirt. Although, perhaps, you will just enjoy a pleasant coolness.
Precipitation on the Mediterranean coast of Egypt in the middle of autumn is also extremely rare. But theoretically, during the vacation, you can witness an inclement day. It is unlikely that this will cause a surge of irritation – in the middle of the desert, such an event is usually very very out of place.
In any case, Rain in Egypt refreshes Cleaner than bathing. And provokes to accomplishment – how is it, to come to this country and not make an excursion to the pyramids in Giza? Well, or not go to the Luxor?
Sinai
The temperature swing in the north of the Akabsky Bay are slightly more pronounced. In Nuveib and Taba, for example, in October in the afternoon it can easily be +35 ° C and higher. But at night you can expect natural colds-the atmosphere cools to +20-22 ° C in the first half of the month and in total to +17-19 ° C-in the second.
The winds are not too strong, but similar Temperature drops Still not very pleasant. And they force to take out jackets from the baggage, in which you left the house “to warm up in the warm edges.”
Water temperature
It also does not have to worry about this. Literally throughout the fall, the Red Sea Heated at least +25-26 ° C.
In October, you have the right to be indignant if the temperature of the water area for some reason drops below +28 degrees Celsius. It will be in Hurghada or Safag, Sharm El Sheikh or Dahaba.
By the way, about the same degree in October holds the sea on the Mediterranean coast of Egypt. What forces tourists who have chosen a vacation in October in Antalya to doubt the correctness of the decision.
In Dahaba, Nuvebe, a tab, it can be slightly cooler-there the water is warmed up to +26-27 ° C. Which is still suitable for unlimited bathing from dawn to sunsetand diving. Which is generally famous for the bay of Akaba.
Requirements
Foreigners arriving at the Egyptian airports starting on May 1, 2021 will have to go broke at the entrance fee of $ 25. The only exception is the Airport of Sharm El Sheikh.
But there, in exchange for free travel to Egypt in the migration card, you will have to write Sinai only. And get the appropriate stamp that forbids you for the duration of the rest (lasting a maximum of 15 days, by the way) to leave the limits of the Sinai Peninsula.
Want to visit the Luxor or go on a bus trip to Cairo and to the pyramids? In this case, you will have to make a “normal” visa by laying out the same $ 25.
Prices 2025
Hotels and apartments even in coastal resorts in the middle of autumn in Egypt They are inexpensive. For a week of rest, for example, in (in love with us at one time) Tony’s Privy One By Red Sea in Hurghada a couple of tourists will pay only about 300 € per week (taxes are included). Yes, without nutrition – but for an apartment of 55 m2, after all, is this very little?!
Nearby there is a much more expensive object-the 5-star Bellagio Beach Resort & Spa. Having its own beach, a small water park and even a school of kaitesurfing. And paying luxury for two for ruin 200+ € per day.
“All inclusive”, by the way, is included, but a solid tourist tax (from above) will have to be paid. However, it is possible to save money by receiving a discount per weekly accommodation.
Scrolled and expensive hotels in charm are taken a lot more. But whether they are “all inclusive” of additional 500+ € per week-JAZ Fanara Resort (own beach and diving center)-another question.
Inexpensive in the October Egypt of the tour, as well as various entertainment events (cruises, diving, safari in the desert). For example, a cruise from a Hurghada on the island of Hiftun, in the program of which is both snorkeling and lunch, will cost ~ 25 €. A one-day excursion trip to the Luxor (16 hours, with lunch, but without input tickets) costs from 35-40 €.
Package tours
In Egypt, for two with departure from Moscow in early October 2025 they will require investments from 150-160 thousand rubles (from 1,500 €). Unless, of course, you take care of yourself and strive exclusively to the good (at least – good) impressions of relaxation.
Duration-6-7 nights, maximum of the half-board can be included in this amount. But, perhaps, there will be only breakfast in the sentence – it all depends on the greed of the organizers. The group transfer, of course, is included in the price: both there and back.
What to do
In 2025, you can count on an extremely rich entertainment program. Many hotels have animators and even live music, under which dinners become quite fascinating and even memorable events. In the presence Mandatory beach ridesskiing on yachts and flights under the dome of the paraglider.
As for the attractions, it’s not very good at the resorts with them – in the same Hurghada you can see not so many interesting things. To go on a tour is another matter!
With many hotels There are water parks. And not the same – two slides and one name – but real and even huge. Giving significant portions of adrenaline to both children and adults.
Almost mandatory when traveling to the Red Sea became immersion. Both with a mask and more thorough equipment – the local waters are rich in corals and other pretty multi -colored animals.
Are there sharks? In recent years, this misfortune should certainly be considered. About how often and where the sharks attack in Egypt.
In Hurghada Snorkling and diving It is supposed to be engaged in the island of Hiftun, local “Maldives”. In Sharm El Sheikh, especially juicy coral reefs live near the island of Tiran. And, of course, in the National Park of Ras-Mohammed.
Traveling for hotel complexes should be taken with caution. It is preferably as part of organized excursion groups and even with armed support. To demonstrate independence, the North African country in 2025 is still not very good.
Excursions
An interesting and even, perhaps, overly saturated option (for the whole day) is a trip to Cairo and its environs. Since the program includes not only acquaintance with the largest city in the country and a visit to the Egyptian Museum. But the great pyramids plus the Big Sphinx, the Big Egyptian Museum in Giza, the tomb of Pharaoh Joser in Sakkara, even a visit to the ancient capital, Memphis.
The desire to visit Luxor and see the Karnak Temple looks quite natural. If desired – not everyone loves such a gloomy painful atmosphere – to visit the Valley of the Kings, where the pharaohs were buried. And specifically – the Hatshepsut temple built into the rock.
A trip from Hurghada in this direction will take a little less time. After all, the distance along the highway does not exceed 300 km.
