holiday in october

Hi there
We're hoping to go to Spain for a week either third or fourth week in October. Were thinking either Javea or Nerja as best bets for good weather. We want to stick to Spain (not Canaries) because of short flight times. Has anyone any experience of holidaying at this time of year as to what weather we can expect? Or any suggestions of the best coast of Spain at this time of year? Thanks in anticipation.

    Hi,

    just thought that I should point out that kids break up for half term on 20th Oct for 1 week. So not sure how much will be available and at a reasonable price. We are going to Costa Brava for 9 nts at that time, have been there for the last 3 years and weather was anywhere between 68-75F, not boiling, but comfortable. Hope this helps.

    Jules :)

    Difficult to forecast - I've had reasonable and bad weather in late October, early November. Won't be as consistent as the Canaries, but likely to better than over here..

    Majorca was around 70f-75f last year in 3rd week in October -only needed jumpers after 10pm ish.
    Costa del sol/Almeria region should be warmest that time of year.
