Spring (March to May)
Warm days, comfortable evenings and a sea that warms from about 22 °C to 25 °C. A great time for both reef trips and desert safaris; Easter holidays are busy.
Summer (June to September)
Very hot, with daytime highs often near 38 °C, and the warmest sea of the year. Spend the middle of the day in the water and book desert trips early in the morning or for the evening.
Autumn (October and November)
The sea is still at its warmest, days become more comfortable and the light is beautiful for photos. One of the best periods overall.
Winter (December to February)
Mild sunny days around 22–23 °C, cooler nights and a sea around 21–22 °C — many snorkelers like a shortie wetsuit. Popular with Europeans escaping the cold; bring a jacket for evenings and desert trips.
