August is the hottest month in the Red Sea. The highest temperatures can get to 42⁰C and the lowest temperatures are somewhere around 27⁰C. At night, the temperature reaches 33⁰C. The water temperature gets to 29⁰C and it's just perfect for swimming and snorkelling. The wind speed can reach almost 24 km/h.

Talking about holiday resorts, one of the best hotels in the region is Jaz Makadi Star and Spa. It is located very close to the beaches, but it also has its own beach. Besides the outdoor pool and the diving centre, residents can also take advantage of the amazing nightly entertainment. The rooms are elegant and they have balconies that overlook either the pool or the garden. This resort features no less than 10 bars and restaurants.

A significant public holiday in August is the Flooding of the Nile. It occurs on August 15 and it celebrates the flood season's beginning. At the same time, people should not miss the Summer Mouleds, featuring singers, dancers and various processions.
