Hurghada Travel Forum

Hello everyone : )

Im looking to go to Egypt in mid November but have been to Sharm twice already. I visited in September before and was wondering how Hurghada would compare and what it would be like in November. Would the weather be good? Would there be many people there? Would there be things to do? It will be me and my mate heading over and probably go all inclusive but would no doubt venture out if the nightlife is okay. Also, how does the snorkeling compare??
All answers would be much appreciated

Due to extreme climatic changes the World is experiencing at the moment, trying to predict the weather can be difficult because of local, on the day variations.
Most places now are seeing weather conditions well outside the norm.
The information below should be used as a guide only.

I have been in Hurgada at the end of November and though it was ok to walk around in bathing suits there was quite a chilly and strong wind.
The weather in terms of sun shining was fine, but to stay on the beach you needed to find a windbreaking system.

Since we am quite some time away from retirement, the locals wondered why we would come to Hurgada that time of the year, when all the retirees where holidaying there ;-)

I think the weather is the same, it's only 80 miles difference as the crow flies.

I prefer Hurghada to Sharm but that is only my choice. I lived in Hurghada and had many holidays there before trying Sharm so i'm probably a bit biased. It all depends what you want from your holiday, there is less to do in Hurghada but it's a lot cheaper out and about and far less crowded. There is a small selection of clubs, including ministry of sound.

Beaches are nicer in Hurghada as you don't get the stones or cliff edges, mostly all sand. Reefs are better in sharm for diving but snorkelling is pretty much the same.

Hope that helps. Enjoy which ever you choose.
