3 of 48 places fit November

Fit means a score of 75 or more out of 100 for November on warmth, sun, sea, rain and crowds, with no departure city.

November brings the sharpest drop of the year: 3 of our 48 places fit, against 25 in October. The Canaries carry on regardless. Fuerteventura and Lanzarote reach 23°, and the sea off Tenerife is about 23° (est.), though its hotels are about 78% full (est.). On the Costa Blanca, Alicante and Benidorm still manage 21°, and hotels in Torrevieja are only about 12% full (est.). Sevilla and València sit at 20°, comfortable for a city break. All Saints' Day, 1 November, is a national holiday. The catch: the sea cools fast, with 7 of 36 coastal places at 20° or more (est.), and Santiago de Compostela has rain on about 15 days.

Places that fit November, in order: 3 of 3 shown

Ranked by the same neutral score for every visitor: warmth, sun, sea, rain and crowds, with no departure city. At most 3 places from one stretch of coast or island group. A guide, a partner link or a payment never changes the order.

How we ranked this

Each place gets a score out of 100 for November from its monthly climate, sea and crowd figures. Places with fewer data points are listed after places with full data. Sea and crowd figures are estimates and marked est.
