Wind:

Wind is mainly created by the difference of temperatures between sea and land. Expect more high wind days in summertime due to stronger high pressure. Mountain formations along the Red Sea are channelling and increase the wind. Winter wind tend to be more from the east, summer is more north easterly. It generally picks up during the day but can sometimes start early and blow all day.

Weather:
hot and dry during the day, with cool evenings in the winter months. Average air temperature is 25°C in winter and 35°C in summer.
Water:
average water temperature is 21°C in winter, 27°C in summer.
