    we went to el gouna which is near hurghada at the end of feb/march and also went 2 weeks ago and i have to say it was much much warmer this time of year then it was in february

    having said that it was still plenty warm enough to sunbathe in feb but the evenings u needed a jacket or cardi whereas a couple weeks ago we were still wearing shorts at 10pm

    HTH

    I've been Sharm in February and its hot enough for sunbathing, but the evenings are chilly.

    Also, it gets dark at around 5.30-6pm.

    Have also been to Sharm in May and it was roasting.
    Waddle you do eh?

    Some of the resorts are quite a long way from each other, so may have slightly different climates http://www.thomsonfly.com/en/destination.html
