cooled well past swimming weather for most, yet still milder than some mornings' air
Sea temperature, bathing water and jellyfish reports: Average sea temperature
AEMET's normal for November is a 20.1°C daytime high and an 11.3°C overnight low, with rain at its most frequent of the year alongside December, 100mm over 5.6 days; pack layers, a light rain jacket, and something warm for evenings, since terraces stay open but the air cools after dark. The sea sits at 18.2°C on Open-Meteo's reanalysis, cooler than most visitors swim by choice, while chiringuitos and beach clubs wind down toward their winter break. With the summer crowds gone it is an easy month for restaurants and galleries, though weekend golf tee times and any dates around the festive switch-on are worth booking ahead. The month usually closes with the town's Christmas lights switch-on on Avenida Ramón y Cajal, the traditional start of the holiday season; the Ayuntamiento sets each year's date in November, so check the What's on section below for the latest confirmed one, and see Marbella in winter for the full festive-season guide.
