What to expect
Daytime
Hot days in Tunisia. Ruins, markets and hills are a morning job. Midday sightseeing is how people remember September for the wrong reason.
Nights stay warm. Air-con, if you can get it, is part of the brief. A jumper for September in Tunisia is almost always a waste of bag space.
Rain
September is the wet side of the year in Tunisia, the wettest stretch on these averages. Days can be heavy. Plans that cannot survive rain are the wrong plans.
This is not a reason to skip Tunisia if you like the place. It is a reason to pack for weather and to stop treating every grey hour as a failed holiday.
