to Egypt with a child
Good afternoon! Please tell me the most suitable time to travel to Egypt with a small child (1 year 6 months). Is there a fundamental difference in the weather between July and September and is it worth it to go to Egypt with such a small child?

There is a difference between July and September. If you choose between these two months, then September is better. The weather is slightly milder (cooler, but not cold).
From my experience:
We were in Sharm in the second half of November - it was very cold in the evenings. People dressed children in hats and jackets. And we were freezing in warm sweaters. Although, you can sunbathe during the day. .
Then we went in the second half of June. At lunchtime it was hot outside, of course. But at that time we ate and slept. And the rest of the time (including the night) was super! milk. But there is no stuffiness and strong humidity, like last summer in Russia or in Turkey during the summer months.
We also went for 3 weeks in July (from the 11th). We didn’t feel a big difference compared to June. We were satisfied.
There were a lot of kids there every month!
Regarding the age of the child, we have been to Egypt many times, there are so many families with children who are only a few months old.
Although, of course, everything is individual. You decide.
But if you decide, when choosing a hotel, find out how it is with the children's menu, whether they rent strollers (if you don't want to take your own).

We went when my daughter was 1.2g. at the beginning of June for 2 weeks. it was already hot during the day for the child, they drove her in a stroller, covered her with a hood from the stroller, swam only in the pool during the day, it was comfortable in the evening and in the morning, the only thing that mosquitoes ate her, although they were regularly poisoned. There is a wonderful Egyptian mosquito ointment, they sell it in pharmacies - a yellow tube, a mosquito is drawn.

And for 3 trips to Egypt, we did not encounter a single mosquito! Probably lucky.

With such a small child, for the first trip, you need to choose a climate that is closer to the climate of residence. For example, Turkey, Bulgaria. And the flight time takes less time.

I beg you .... TURKEY????? It is SUCH summer in Turkey that those who feel great in Egypt in July, in Turkey, suffered with their health hoo!
Not everything is so clear! If we recommend Turkey, then specifically the first 2 weeks of June or September, perhaps. And from the second half of June to August in Turkey, like in a bath. Very humid. The body becomes sticky, breathing is uncomfortable, swimwear on the balconies does not dry out overnight ...
I'm talking about resorts located on the Mediterranean Sea in Turkey.
There is also the Aegean coast. So there the air is pleasant, but the sea does not warm up in summer. Cold. So, you need to look exactly at what numbers people are traveling. And select country options.
Or first learn more about the climate of the desired country, and only then choose a comfortable period.

This question is better to ask the pediatrician, how YOUR child will endure the flight and acclimatization, all children are different, everyone has different immunity, what suits one may be unacceptable for another, at the same time ask if a child can be vaccinated against hepatitis A, which is quite common in Egi, just don't say that we've been there a hundred times and nothing. I think that with such small children, precautions should not be neglected. Your child will pay for the carelessness of their parents. And you don’t need to look at other reckless parents, the full site is sitting and looking for hotels for babies, it seems that they have 28 children and they don’t feel sorry for one.

"In Turkey, like in a bathhouse." Perhaps you and I were in different Turkeys! Humidity is high in Kemer, but in Marmaris, Antalya and even Alanya, the humidity is completely different. And in September in Turkey - generally wonderful weather (especially in the second half. But in Egypt in July, I would only wish the enemy.

I am not your enemy, but for us and 2 pairs of our friends AFTER trips to Turkey in the summer and to Egypt in the same months, the question of choosing a country for the summer is not worth it. That is, we are waiting for July to spend it in Egypt!
Yes, everyone is different! Believe me, there are those who really like Egypt in July!
But in the UAE, where at that time under 50 degrees, of course, I would not even go for free.

In Egypt, too, about the same number on the thermometer. For example, I can also adapt to any temperature. After the super-wet Sigapur, I'm not afraid of anything. But we are talking about a one and a half year old child! What kind of Egypt is he in July! Therefore, September in Turkey for kids is the very thing!

In the Hurghada area:
- in June during the day + 34, at night +25;
- in July and August during the day +37, at night +26;
- September day +32, night +23. Not +50 at all! And I repeat that the level of humidity is optimal, it is well tolerated.
Sharm is 2-4 degrees hotter.
Yes, September will be more comfortable for the baby (judging by the degrees), but it’s up to his parents, of course!
About Turkey in ventyabre - I agree. In September, there is not such a steam room already.
But the author asked the question about Egypt! Probably there are some arguments why this country was chosen. Maybe the cost (which is much more affordable than Turkey), maybe something else ...
Therefore, I give information on Egypt.

They returned on May 14 from Egypt with a child of a year and 10 months. The child is happy, there are no problems. We swam in the pool and in the sea. The snot and the consequences of the winter flu have evaporated in a week in the sun! Egypt is full of children, even monthly babies - no problem. Hat and sunscreen.

We always went to Egypt before May 15-20. Last year, we were a little "late" - we were from May 27 to June 10. It seems that there was only a 2-3 week difference, BUT! I managed to burn out, and I used all the means and in the usual amount. The sun is already very active and "evil". Therefore, it is unlikely that a panama hat and a protective cream will save babies in June-July-August. This can only be done by the parental mind.

The floor of the hotel went red on the second or third day and in May. Business really in reason - in reason of use of a cream :-). It is necessary to smear at least once every two hours (children more often) and the cream should lie down in a layer - so that the white remains on the skin. Plus, the protective number of the cream is at least 30 (we had 50). We spent the whole day in the sun and none of the three of us burned out.

And we, even though we ourselves are adults, in Egypt never fry on sunbeds under the open sun. Always under an umbrella! Snorkeling - in a T-shirt. Plus, the cream is waterproof.
As a result, there is a light tan, but we are not fans of skin charring. Just enjoy the sea, the atmosphere...
Many children run around in T-shirts (those who have already learned to walk. And in panama hats. Of course, cream.
And for those who are only in wheelchairs - very often I saw such special summer models in which a sun umbrella is mounted. I don't know, maybe it's only foreigners who have them?
As far as I know, sea water is very beneficial for the nasopharynx and skin. So the warm, warm Red Sea for a baby is good. And even just splashes of sea water dissolved in the air are also a plus!
Although there is a point of view that climate change is bad ... And what about sitting for several years in a gassed Moscow, for example, without getting out - it's more useful for a child! )))
Okay, we're not discussing this here, but the weather in Egypt after all ...

likewise, fully support
The current sun does more harm than good.
so better be careful
and even more so with small children.
As for September and July
then it will definitely be more comfortable in September
even in Egypt, even in Turkey

before the trip to Egypt, she tortured everyone with questions about the weather in May-June. thanks to all. we got it like this. we arrived on May 14, in the evening we went in jackets, we got badly burned during the day, although we didn’t sunbathe on purpose, we swam without T-shirts. The whole hotel went in burns, even with sunscreen. The sea was icy for me personally, only by May 20 it became warmer. a lot of jellyfish. with the wind it is very comfortable, without wind it is hot during the day. ebb and flow every day. the result for me is that in June it will be very hot, but the sea is warmer. If you are careful, you can have a good rest and sunbathe in the shade in May and June, just swim in long-sleeved shirts.
