☀️ The Weather
Early November is the end of the rainy season and the start of the high season. Expect highs of 31°C, nights around 25°C and a sea at 29°C. Short showers are still possible in the first days of November, but the sky clears up quickly and the sea on the west coast gets calmer week by week.
