Weather in Algarve in November

November in Algarve is mild enough that walking is the default. This is a city-break month more than a sea-holiday month.

In Portugal, this is how Algarve actually wears November, not how a country centroid would. Compared with August and January, November sits in the middle of Algarve's year.

What to expect

Daytime

Mild afternoons in Algarve are the prize in November. You can eat outside on the good days. You still want something for the breeze.

This is walking weather. Shade is useful, not essential the way it is in the hot months. A long outdoor day is a reasonable plan.

Rain

November is the wet side of the year in Algarve. Days can be heavy. Plans that cannot survive rain are the wrong plans.

This is not a reason to skip Algarve if you like the place. It is a reason to pack for weather and to stop treating every grey hour as a failed holiday.

Evening

Evenings are cooler. A layer helps after sunset.

What to pack

  • Rain jacket

  • A layer for cooler evenings
