Beste reistijd voor Marsa Alam: Weer, watertemperatuur en seizoenen

With over 350 days of guaranteed sunshine each year, Marsa Alam is a premier year-round beach and diving haven. However, understanding seasonal wind patterns, air temperatures, and water temperatures helps you plan the ideal holiday.

Autumn (October to November): The Gold Standard

Autumn is universally considered the best season: daytime air temperatures hover around a pleasant 28°C–31°C, water temperature is a warm 27°C, and ocean winds are calm. This is also peak season for spotting oceanic whitetip sharks at Elphinstone.

Spring (March to May): Great Conditions & Marine Life

Spring sees warming seas (24°C–26°C) and comfortable daytime highs of 27°C–32°C. Excellent for both desert safaris and boat cruises to Sataya Reef.

Winter & Summer Considerations

Winter (Dec–Feb) features mild sunshine (22°C–25°C), though a 5mm wetsuit is recommended for extended dives as sea temp dips to 23°C. Summer (Jun–Aug) brings hot weather (35°C–38°C) but bath-warm water (29°C–30°C) and unbeatable low-season room rates.
