Typical, not a forecast. Reanalysis wind misses some local thermal winds, so a spot known for an afternoon breeze may do better than this.

About Zeitco Jetty

Known for sailing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces E, so wind from the W blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).

Water about 26°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.

A spot for sailing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing E. Wind from the E blows onshore, wind from the W blows out to sea, and wind from the S or N runs along the shore. It is sheltered to the open sea. The sea is about 21°C in February, its coldest month (2 mm shorty), and 28°C in August, its warmest (no wetsuit). No town nearby. Nearest beds: El Gouna, 50 km (about 1h 30m by car). Nearest airport: Hurghada International Airport (HRG), 76 km.

The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
