November travel

Where to go on holiday in November?

Cancun scores 8.1 out of 10 in November: 29C days, a 28C sea you can swim in without flinching, and 120mm of rain that mostly falls in short afternoon bursts. Here is how the rest of the world stacks up this month.

Crowds. Pleasant shoulder season with space on the beach.

Prices. Good value, with all-inclusive rates well below peak.

Seaweed. Sargassum seaweed risk is low, so the sand is at its cleanest.

Storms. Hurricane season is technically open but direct hits this month are rare.
