In January in Egypt, it's the season for many citrus and winter fruits. This is an excellent time to enjoy juicy oranges, tangerines, and sweet dates. According to the seasonality calendar, in January, the following ripen:

Fruit ripening seasons in Egypt
Month Seasonal fruits
January Orange, banana, grapefruit, guava, strawberry, kumquat, lime, lemon, tangerine, physalis, date
  • Citrus fruits (oranges, tangerines, grapefruits, lemons, limes) are at their peak of sweetness and juiciness at this time, and their prices are the lowest.
  • Strawberries are just entering the season; they might still be a bit sour but are already available.
  • Dates are the king of the winter table, sweet and nutritious.
  • Guava and kumquat are interesting exotic options that are also worth trying.

However, remember that in January, it's not the season for such popular fruits as mangoes, watermelons, melons, grapes, peaches, and most berries. They are either unavailable or will be imported and expensive.

Fruits in hotels in January are usually represented by this seasonal set: oranges, tangerines, sometimes guava and bananas. To find more variety or higher-quality fruits, it's worth going to a local supermarket or market.
