I read in the reviews that in Sharmalsheikh you can swim only until 17-30: both in the sea and in the pools. And in Hurghada? Maybe it's better to go there? Hilton Resort or Golden Five City hotels? What is the reason for this time limit? We are going in mid-October, maybe it's cold after 17-30? Who has been to these hotels?

There is more wind in Hurghada (and nastier outside the hotel!). As the sun starts to set, it gets colder. Now you can swim until 17.30, and in winter until 16, no later than, in my opinion.

you can swim in the bosses in different ways, each hotel has its own restrictions, for example, I was in Turkey in Belek there, at least at night, and in Sunrise in Sharm until 18, in my opinion, but you can’t swim in the sea, t.to. There are sharks in the Red Sea and when it gets dark they swim closer to the coastline, this restriction is for your own good! What is Sharm, what is Hurghada, there will be a restriction on falling into the sea! I wish you a good rest

Hi. beaten in hurghada in triton empire beach resort - people swam until the evening, they just warn you - in the evening dangerous ribis can approach the shore and visibility worsens, you can run into hedgehogs or other dangerous ribs. and just a wonderful rest.

Almost half of the Red Sea fish are poisonous or dangerous to humans. That is why they are also not allowed to be fed. At night, deadly fish species such as stonefish, stingray, lionfish are sedentary nocturnal and you may encounter them in the water. There are no effective sera from their poison, it all depends on the person's immunity. In most cases, this is fatal.
Swimming in the pools is not allowed at night, as a rule, due to water purification.

we were in the golden 5 city, the hotels of this complex are wonderful, you can safely go. You can really swim in the pools until 18-00 (everywhere it says pools are open until 18-00), as we understand it, this is due only to the fact that at this time no one is watching what is happening in ba-ah and if something happens to you there will be no one to help such a precaution. As for the sea, the guide immediately warned that after sunset it’s better not to risk swimming, as sea urchins crawl out of all the cracks and you can step on them, when

you’ll have to lie in the hospital for a couple of weeks, it’s unlikely to die. Of course, there are poisonous fish, but you still need to manage to touch them, we fed the fish in the sea right away and didn’t see any danger in this, no one told us that we couldn’t do this. We saw hedgehogs and during the day they slept in corrals, black with long thorns. Night swimming is not recommended precisely because of them.
Ride and have a ton of fun!

Stepping on a hedgehog is not the worst thing. Poison, for example, lionfish is comparable in strength to the poison of a cobra, and after an injection, a person feels severe pain, convulsions, numbness and loss of consciousness ...
But the chintz cone has the strongest poison - such a pretty small shell ... it is 50 times stronger than the poison of a cobra ....
Regarding feeding while in the water... Have you seen how fish break coral branches with their jaws?... The fingers in which you hold the food are less strong...

1. The restriction is not in time, but in illumination. The sun sets - the living creatures in the sea come to life, and the sunbeds are removed near the pools and the attendants leave.
2. In insurance cases, after cuts, poisoning, overheating in the sun, there are consequences from pricks of hedgehogs. Vsezh tourists are warned that you can come in the afternoon.

Guys! What sharks??? Firstly, at 17:30 it is already dark, and secondly, various living creatures such as sea urchins slide down to the shore and you can step on them. The water in the pools is drained at such times to clean the pool. And when to swim? After all, dinner starts at 19 (and you still, at least, need to take a shower before eating), and then entertainment programs! Believe me, you will not experience any discomfort from the lack of night swimming!

As for me - October is the best month of the year for a holiday in Egypt. The wind season begins in November. October is very hot. It gets dark really early in October. On the beach you can be somewhere until 16.00. This is enough in the morning. There will be time before dinner to clean up.
I'm also going in October this year.

Do not believe about sharks and other marine reptiles. Nonsense, locals spread legends to attract more tourists. I lived in Sharm for a long time. I can say for sure. You can’t swim in the pool in the evening, as it is cleaned with bleach. And there are a lot of coastal corrals in the sea, but you can’t see them in the dark, since there are no lights on the beach, and you can easily break your leg or get burned. Everything is done for the safety of tourists. And sharks do not swim up to the shore again because of the coral line, the cat-I goes along the entire coast

Everything is simple. You can’t swim in the sea because after six, the activity of the main part of the poisonous living creatures that live in the Red Sea begins. in Sharm, for example, poisonous sea urchins crawl out of coral reefs ... All this can be fraught for vacationers with unpleasant allergic reactions after bites, injections ... As for pools, special cleaning, chlorination, etc. .d. water, so swimming at this time is not allowed.
