Weather in La Gomera in November

Yes - La Gomera in November suits a warm-weather break if you want comfortable days and a sea that is still suitable for swimming, rather than guaranteed heat. Daytime highs average 23°C, nights stay around 20°C and the sea averages 22.4°C. The catch is that sunshine does not fill every daylight hour, and some rain is likely. Go for time outdoors and mild evenings, with a little flexibility for wetter spells.

It is a reasonable choice: warm days. The best months for La Gomera on our scoring are July, August, June; months averaging 25°C or more: Jul, Aug, Sep, Oct.

Warm enough for light clothes, without dependable heat

Pack mainly light clothes, but leave room for a light layer for cooler evenings. The average daytime high makes November a reasonable choice if you prefer being outdoors without strong heat dictating your plans. Days reach 25°C around 11% of the time, while 30°C is unusual at 1%, so this is not the month to choose for reliably hot afternoons. Nights are mild on average, though the coldest can fall to around 18°C or below. Short sleeves are a sensible daytime starting point; a warmer layer gives you options after dark. Keep sun protection handy rather than treating the gentler temperatures as a reason to skip it.

Swimming weather, with room for a change of plan

The sea is warm enough for swimming by temperature, making November a useful option if getting into the water matters to your holiday. At 22.4°C, it is better approached as comfortable swimming water than a very warm soak; your own tolerance still matters. There are about 6.5 hours of sunshine within 10.6 hours of daylight, so expect some time without direct sun rather than uninterrupted blue skies. Rain reaches the rainy-day threshold on about 4 days during the month. That supports planning plenty of outdoor time, but not assuming every day will stay dry. Pack a light waterproof and keep swimming plans flexible when the weather turns.
