Typical climate

Warm in October

October splits in two. The first half can still feel like late summer on the south coast. The second half usually does not.

Low 20s are still common in the far south early in the month. By the end, “warm” means high teens.

Places that usually fit

  • Malaga, Faro, Sicily, Crete, Cyprus

    The places most likely to keep a warm afternoon.

  • Canary Islands

    Settle back into reliable mild heat.

  • Adriatic and southern France

    Lovely some weeks, rainy and cool others.
