December weather: days and evenings
The retained Hurghada Airport reference gives December a mean daily low of 13.4 °C and a mean daily high of 23.8 °C, rounded to one decimal. These are 1991–2020 climate averages, not weather forecasts for a specific holiday.
December planning benefits from separating daytime outdoor time from evenings and early starts. Bring layers for the parts of the day that do not resemble the afternoon beach photograph. The guide does not have a local sea-temperature or wind series for December.
Build a winter-sun stay around your interests
For a beach-focused visit, start with the shore setting and the actual hotel package. For an active stay, compare a golf session, a named water-sports centre or a guided reef activity. For a slower day, a spa booking and marina meal create a different routine.
Check whether the facilities that matter to you operate during your dates. Pool heating, children’s sessions and beach access should come from the hotel or host, rather than from a destination-wide winter description.
December holidays and evenings
Christmas and New Year arrangements are specific to the hotel, restaurant and booked package. Ask whether a festive meal is included, optional or charged separately, and whether different cancellation terms apply. No current festive programme has been independently confirmed for this guide.
Choose a few named places before arrival, then leave room for the actual conditions. An evening outside the accommodation needs a return journey as well as a restaurant choice.
A practical three-day December outline
Use the arrival day for settling into your accommodation and shore. On the next full day, plan one outdoor experience around its booked time, with a meal near your base. Use another day for the marina, wellness or a different part of the bay.
Save the actual places in My stay and assign them to days. These are editorial planning ideas, not booked arrangements. Compare December with January and March in the climate guide if your travel dates are flexible.
