Egypt weather overview
Egypt’s climate ranges from the mild, rainy Mediterranean coast in the north to the blazing deserts of Upper Egypt in the south, and from the fertile Nile Delta to the sunny Red Sea resorts. That diversity means conditions can vary dramatically from one city to the next on the very same day.
Regional climate overview
Five climate regions shape Egypt’s weather.
Mediterranean Coast
A hot semi-arid Mediterranean climate — a mild Mediterranean climate moderated by the sea — warm humid summers and the wettest winters in Egypt.
Nile Delta
A hot desert with delta moisture climate — the fertile heart of Egypt — hot dry summers tempered by Delta humidity, and short, mild, occasionally damp winters.
Greater Cairo
A hot desert climate — a hot desert climate where the Nile meets the sand — long hot summers, brief mild winters, and dusty spring Khamsin winds.
Nile Valley & Upper Egypt
A hot desert (hyper-arid) climate — one of the driest, sunniest places on Earth — fierce dry summer heat, warm winters, and almost no rain along the Upper Nile.
Red Sea Coast
A hot desert by a warm sea climate — hot desert softened by a warm sea — sunny year-round, with hot summers, mild winters and virtually no rain.
