Mild afternoons, with layers for later

Daytime temperatures are comfortable for walking without the heat becoming the main consideration. A light top may be enough during a sunny spell, but keep a jumper or jacket handy for shade and later in the day. Average night lows are 14.7°C, so outdoor evenings call for more than beachwear. The warmer days can reach 20.8°C or more, but that is a bonus rather than the temperature to plan around. Colder nights can fall to 11.4°C or below. Pack adaptable layers rather than a suitcase built entirely around shorts, and you should be better prepared for the range of conditions.

The sea is for those who tolerate cooler water

At an average of 19.2°C, the sea is bracing: appealing enough if you already enjoy cooler-water swimming, less so if you want to linger comfortably. Its November range of 18°C to 20°C means you should not count on a particularly warm year changing that judgement much. A swim may still be part of the trip, but it makes sense to treat it as optional rather than the daily focus. Have dry clothes and a warm layer ready afterwards. For someone whose holiday depends on warm water and long sunbathing sessions, November is a compromise, not a reliable fit.

Use the sunshine, but leave room for rain

November brings about 8 rainy days, so rain is a realistic interruption rather than a reason to rule the month out. Keep outdoor plans movable and pack a light waterproof that works over your layers. There are about 4.8 hours of sunshine a day within 9.8 hours of daylight, which leaves scope for time outside but does not promise clear skies throughout the day. Plan longer walks for the brighter forecast spells, and avoid making every day depend on staying outdoors. The balance suits travellers content with mixed weather; it is less convincing if you want dependable sunshine from morning to evening.
