The middle of spring rarely becomes a good time to relax in the resorts of the Black or Mediterranean Sea. Beach holidays during this period in these regions will not be comfortable. If the opportunity to escape abroad falls in the spring and you want to bask in the sun, it is recommended to choose tours to Egypt for April. In this hospitable country, the high season starts just from the second spring month.
Climatic conditions
When choosing a vacation in Egypt in April, it should be bone in mind that the weather conditions are unlikely to indulge in constancy. The spring climate here is changeable. Often hot days are replaced by rather cool ones. The secret is that in Egypt, April is a transitional period. Therefore, at the beginning of the month it is often quite fresh, but closer to May, a full-fledged summer reigns in the country.
By the end of the month, both the air and the water warm up perfectly, so the rest in Egyptian resorts becomes very comfortable and complete. In the last ten days of April, the temperature in the country reaches +25-29 degrees during the daytime. At night, the mercury column rarely drops below +18-20 degrees. The water in the Red Sea during this period warms up to + 22-25 degrees.
But a lot depends on the particular resort. In Dahab, Sharm el-Sheikh, Taba and other regions located on the Sinai Peninsula, it is much warmer. The secret lies in the absence of winds. If you go on vacation to Safaga, Hurghada, Marsa Alam, then keep in mind: sand storms are not uncommon here in April. They subside only by May.
As for precipitation, in the middle of spring they should not be feared. In Egypt during this period they are extremely rare. If it starts to rain, it will soon pass. In April, these resorts have a 5% chance of rain.
Prices to Egypt in April
When choosing a region for a holiday in the middle of spring, many take into account the price level. If the price is of fundamental importance, and you want to plan a budget vacation, then it is recommended to go to Egypt in early April. In the first decade of the month, cheap last-minute tours are often found.
But already from the second week of April, the cost of vouchers increases significantly. Often a difference of several days in cost is significantly different. If we compare the prices of tours for March and April, then the difference between them is about 25%. The cost of a 7-day vacation for two in a 5-star hotel complex starts at $1,000. If you choose a 4-star hotel for the same period, the price is 800-900 dollars. Accommodation in a five-star hotel as part of a family tour in the country of the pharaohs at the end of April will cost from $1200-1400.
But it is important to consider that, going to Egypt for the holidays, you will have to spend money not only on the ticket itself. You will also need to bring cash with you to:
- excursions;
- cafes and restaurants outside the hotel complex;
- shopping;
- visiting various entertainment complexes, spa centers, etc.
When visiting Egyptian resorts, many tourists try to look into the numerous shopping centers. They manage to buy not only souvenirs, but also high-quality clothes, home textiles, papyrus. Often money is needed to purchase accessories for snorkeling and swimming. On average, the cost of a bath towel here is $15, one mango is $1. Tour prices start at $30.
Entertainment
In mid-April, you can find a lot of interesting entertainment on the territory of Egyptian resorts. The period itself is already ideal for excursions and beach holidays. If you wish, you can see the historical monuments of the country with your own eyes. To do this, it is recommended to go on excursions to:
If museums are not too interesting for you, you can go on a boat trip on a yacht. Such leisure is usually accompanied by a tour of the islands, sea fishing or diving. An unforgettable experience will leave a dive on a submarine with a porthole. Such entertainment will allow you to see with your own eyes sharks, moray eels, octopuses and schools of colored fish in their natural habitat.
If you want to really relax, you can go to the spas. The list of their services is very diverse. If you prefer an active holiday, you should go to the water park.
