Bangkok in November
November can be a great time to visit Thailand’s capital city. The average temperature is over 33C, and the rainy season is ending. Evenings are still balmy, rarely falling below 24C, so you can explore the city at night without having to pack warmer clothes for the nighttime.
Being warm and dry in November means Thailand is a fantastic choice for your November sun.
Singapore in November
Singapore has a tropical rainforest climate, so November will still see plenty of rain alongside the average temperature of 31C. November is the start of one of the city’s two monsoon seasons, so rainfall is on the up, with an average of 243 mm. On the plus side, a cool sea breeze reduces the humidity slightly in the afternoons.
The Dominican Republic in November
With an average of 8 hours of sunshine a day, and temperatures of around 30C, November can be a great time to pay a visit to the Caribbean’s most mountainous island. It’s the tail end of the rainy season and hurricane season, but while rain is likely, any downpours are likely to be short but very heavy.
Barbados in November
Being not far from the Equator gives Barbados a hot tropical climate year-round. November is no different, with temperatures of around 30C. Like the Dominican Republic, rainfall is relatively common this month, but downpours are likely to be lighter and shorter on Barbados.
Orlando in November
Chock full of theme parks, Orlando in Florida, USA, is still 29C in November. Rain is unlikely, with only 58 mm falling in the average November. As the humidity drops, Florida makes an excellent choice for getting some winter sun, as you may find it more comfortable than you would in summer.
Whether you’re planning to head this November, remember to buy your Travel Insurance as soon as you book your trap.
