Wetter in Eilat im Dezember

Wadi Rum-forum threads on a December visit describe daytime conditions as genuinely pleasant, posters calling the real challenge nighttime temperatures capable of dropping close to zero regardless of how the day felt. Regulars call camp blankets generally sufficient for warmth, several posters reporting comfortable nights even in light pajamas once properly bundled. Posters recommend Wadi Rum Night Luxury Camp, Sun City Camp or Mars Land Camp as reliable options, all named repeatedly for good safety standards and comfort. Regulars call stargazing a genuine December highlight, clear desert skies considered ideal once visitors are dressed warmly enough to stay outside comfortably. Posters recommend real cold-weather layers regardless of a warm afternoon, several regulars describing conditions after dark as considerably colder than a first-time visitor might expect. The record: 16.9C days feeling like 16C, 6.1C nights, effectively no measurable precipitation and 44 percent humidity.

Forum posters describe late April in Eilat as bringing daytime highs in the low-to-mid 30sC, with a real chance of a sharav (hot desert wind) pushing temperatures toward 40C on the hottest days. Posters cite sea temperatures early in the month still on the cool side, around 21-22C, warm enough for swimming by month's end but cool enough that many snorkelers still opt for at least a 'shorty' wetsuit. Posters consistently rate April through June as the sweet spot for a Eilat visit - warm enough for the beach, not yet the full heat of summer, and still cool enough in the evenings for comfortable hiking in the surrounding desert. Posters generally rate April as close to ideal for Eilat, good beach weather paired with hiking-friendly evenings.

October is the forum's sweet spot for Eilat: the sea is still at summer temperature, about 26°C, while the air has come off the summer peak — though coming off the peak here still means an average high of 32°C, against cool nights near 19. No rain at all. For diving that combination is the entire point: warm water, bearable surface conditions. It is also after the Jewish holidays, so the town is not crowded. Late October into early November is what regulars name as the ideal window.
