Most tourists that go on a holiday will go to Hurghada or El Gouna. It is famous because of the one week beach fanatics lying in the sun all day and doing not much. Diving Hurghada and el Gouna is also one of the main attractions and many dive shops pop up and close again. So check the dive shop of your choice thoroughly for equipment, organization and reputation. Hurghada and El Gouna are cheap places for day dives and to get licensed, but unfortunately diving here is not the best Egypt has to offer. There are outside reefs that offer some excellent diving such as the dive sites at Shaab Abu Nuhas, Abu Hashish and Abu Ramada. Some of them can eaily be reached but for others you will have to find boats that go to these places.

Climate and water temperatures are equal to those of Ras Mohammed at the other side of the Red Sea. Water temperature is nice at 20 degrees in winter (February) to 27 degrees in summer (early October). Remember that the Egyptian Climate is hot and dry, ranging from 40 degrees in summer to 20 in winter. Diving can be done year around, with visibilities between 10 and 50 meters, depending on the place you visit and the wind conditions. If you want to do some easy and quick dives or you prefer a holiday that combines beach, diving and nightlife, Hurghada and El Gouna are the places to go. But if you want to do some real exploring try to go to more remote areas in Egypt such as the offshore Marine Park Islands, Marsa Galeb or Fury Shoal. Live-aboards to these places are easily found in Hurghada, but try to book ahead.
