Egypt Weather in May

Tourism Rate:

Honestly speaking, it is not a wise decision to travel to Egypt in May. A kind of sandstorm called Pentecostal wind by local people blows occasionally, which causes great inconvenience to tourists.

If people still want to travel to Egypt in May 2025, the Red Sea, not so affected by windy climate, is the best place. There are about 1,000 kinds of marine organisms in the Red Sea, whose colors and shapes are amazing. When snorkeling or diving in Sharm el-Sheikh, you can see not only colorful fish and coral, but also sharks and even dolphins. But don't be afraid, sharks rarely attack people.

Alexandria by Mediterranean coast is also a good place worth visiting. It is Egypt's largest seaport, second largest city as well as a famous historic city. Besides, Alexander is also famous as “a summer resort”, known as “Pearl of the Mediterranean". Katebe Castle, Pompey's Pillar and Montazah Palace and many other famous tourist spots are all in Alexandria. And Alexander Lighthouse is one of the world’s wonders.
