Warm days, with some genuinely hot spells

Expect weather that suits summer clothing during the day, but leave room for a light layer after dark. Days reach 25°C on 62% of occasions, so warmth is common rather than guaranteed. There is still a meaningful chance of stronger heat: 22% of days reach 30°C, making shade and a slower pace sensible around midday. If you dislike hot weather, plan your more active time for the morning rather than assuming October will always feel mild. Average night lows of about 18°C make evenings easier to manage, although cooler nights can call for sleeves. This is a good fit for travellers who want warmth but are happy to adjust their plans to the day's conditions.

Mostly dry, but the sea is bracing

The sea averages about 20°C, which is bracing rather than comfortably warm. A quick dip may appeal, but do not choose October purely for long, leisurely swims if you feel the cold. Sunshine averages about 6.8 hours within 11.2 hours of daylight, leaving useful time outdoors without promising uninterrupted blue skies. Rain is usually a limited part of the month, so a flexible outdoor plan makes more sense than expecting frequent wet days. Still, keep something to do indoors in mind rather than treating dry weather as certain. Overall, the weather is better suited to relaxing outside and taking shorter swims than to a holiday built entirely around warm water.
