What to expect
Daytime
Cool days in Bordeaux: a jumper you can take off, a shell in the bag. Walking is fine. Lingering outside without a layer is optimism.
Mornings and evenings are colder than the postcard. Pack for both, especially if you leave the built-up centre.
Rain
February is on the drier side of the year in Bordeaux. Showers are possible. They do not define the month.
A shell that lives in the bag is enough. This is not November, and it should not be packed as if it were.
Evening
Evenings are cooler. A layer helps after sunset.
What to pack
Rain jacket
A layer for cooler evenings
