Traveller notes on Siwa in February

Other months in Siwa

Siwa's forum places the best visiting window from October through April, well clear of July's peak heat. Regulars note the desert oasis cools quickly once the sun goes down, so a wind jacket or sweater for the evening is standard advice even when the day itself was warm and sunny.
