Beach holidays in November. Where to go in November - the best vacation ideas

19.03.2022

If you add a few days of vacation to the long weekend in November, you will have a great chance to go to the warm sun and sea. Those who are thirsty to lie on the sand will have to forget about Europe for the coming months, but Asia, South America and some African countries are ready to offer their hot resorts. Where to go while at home preparing for winter, and where you can combine a beach holiday with a lot of interesting events?

Where it is warm in November and you can swim in the sea

Egypt

Egypt, which has already become a classic for our tourists, is the most budgetary and optimal option for traveling in November. During this period, the temperature steadily keeps at around +30, so without a doubt you can trust Egypt with your beach holiday. Diving remains the main entertainment - the Red Sea will please with a variety of inhabitants and colorful reefs. The best of what nature has to offer can be seen on a glass bottom boat trip. If you want to spend your vacation as calmly as possible, you should go to Taba - a place of concentration of quiet and comfortable hotels.

Mexico

It is believed that November is the beginning of the most successful season for visiting Mexico. This distant country has become much closer in recent years and is consistently in demand among Russian tourists. Mexico easily falls under the definition of a “paradise destination where everything is possible”: you can discover the great Mayan heritage, taste exotic delicacies, including stocking up on vitamins, or opt for passive recreation. In November, the weather here is cloudless, there is almost no rainfall. It's time to find a place in the sun on any of the beaches in Mexico, try extreme sports or sign up for a hiking tour to the volcano.

Goa

By November, Goa is completely freed from the rainy season, and crowds of tourists begin to gather on its beaches only by mid-December. Why not seize the moment? If you have free time and money, you can safely stay here for a whole month, enjoying the empty beaches. Other important bonuses of November Goa are warm water, comfortable temperature and, of course, more low prices. And it's also the best time to visit the sights - National parks especially picturesque after the rainy season.

Dubai

No wonder November in Dubai is the peak season. At this time, it will be equally comfortable to swim and have an active rest, including taking a child with you. The heat has already subsided, there are no strong winds either, which means that there is no risk of catching a cold or getting a sunstroke. In November, Dubai can offer tourists a number of interesting exhibitions, including automotive and jewelry. Probably the only disadvantage of the holiday this month is the high prices, so it’s better to think about your vacation in advance.

Canary Islands


If the vacation fell at the beginning of the month, you can still have time to swim on canary islands. By the end of November, the wind intensifies here, and the water cools noticeably. But for a beach holiday, the most pleasant and, which is also important, profitable period is coming. The Canary Islands, which seem to many to be an inaccessible destination, please with low prices in November. It is worth taking advantage of the offer and seeing with your own eyes why tourists dream of the Canaries so much. In November, you can devote time to walks along the coast, visiting the Teide volcano, trips to old castles and nature reserves, or a more detailed acquaintance with the cozy cities and cuisine of the Canary Islands. And if a strong wind rises, you can go in for windsurfing, which is popular here.


Thailand

This is not the first season that Thailand has been giving exotic to tourists who miss the heat. For a reasonable price, our compatriots get access to perfect beaches, amazing sights, exotic fruits and a world of bargain shopping. In November, pleasant and dry weather sets in almost everywhere, although rainy days are still possible on the islands. Tourists who choose Thailand for their November trip will certainly appreciate how the country is changing for the new season - since October, they have been actively preparing for the influx of guests and ennobling hotels, beaches and gardens.


Krathong

Perhaps someone will want to visit Loi Krathong (Loy Krathong), this year on November 13 - the most beautiful Asian holiday, which just falls in November. Thais make boats on which they put candles and flowers. And then they release the krathongs into the water, believing that sorrows and negativity will float away with them.

Eilat (Israel)

While some regions of Israel are raining, in Eilat, where rainfall is less frequent in November, the weather is ideal for all types of holidays. First, this good time for traveling with a child: there is no sweltering heat, no strong wind either. Therefore, you can go to the fascinating park City of the Kings or just spend all your time at the sea. Secondly, Eilat offers opportunities for profitable shopping - local shops and duty-free shopping invariably attract tourists here. As for the sea, it remains comfortable for swimming most of the time. And the clear waters of the bay and the interesting underwater world attract divers to Eilat.

Before the New Year, prices for holidays are growing every day. But you can always save.

  • Choose another city of arrival. It is cheaper to get to the resort by local transport (plane, bus, train, ferry).
  • Look for hotels not in popular places, but next to them. In a neighboring city or province, the same sea and sun, but the prices are lower and the people are kinder.
  • When looking for housing, do not limit yourself to standard search engines. Try couchsurfing, Airbnb or rentals already in place.
  • Eat in cafes where there are a lot of locals. It's cheaper and tastier. And don't forget about supermarkets: sometimes it's easier to buy food and cook it yourself.
  • Believe in adventure and be open to people. This not only adds vivid memories, but also decently saves, if you're lucky.

November is the month of calm before the New Year's storm. The perfect time to relax without the hustle and bustle. We share our thoughts on where to go in November 2020.


the south coast of Crimea

Why you need to go: on vacation in the Crimea in November, you can still find warm days. There are much fewer tourists than in the season, and this will allow you to calmly explore local attractions, forgetting about the noisy crowd. Since there are not so many people, vacation housing is much cheaper.

What's the weather like: very unpredictable. A warm cyclone may come, and then the air will warm up to +20 °C. But most often in the region of +12 ... +15 ° С, so you can’t go anywhere without a jacket.

Wherego: better to the south of the peninsula - to Yalta, Alushta, Sevastopol.

Heat to do: on clear days it is good to walk in nature: Cape Fiolent, Chufut-Kale caves, Botanical Garden Nikita (this is not Mikhalkov, but such a village). If it rains, go to the museums of Yalta, Sevastopol and Bakhchisaray.


Sochi

WhycostsBydriveIn November: as in the Crimea, the flow of tourists subsided, leaving behind empty spaces for walking and favorable prices for accommodation.

What's the weather like: warm enough, around +15 °C. There are few cloudy days with snow and rain. However, there is no snow cover, so for skiing it is too early.

Things to do: you can climb mountains, closer to Krasnaya Polyana, ride a funicular, engage in various sports, including extreme ones. There is a place Medvezhiy Ugol, where water is offered from mineral spring(the composition is similar to the famous "Narzan"). In the valley of the Laura River, there are open-air cages in which wild animals rest - children will especially like a walk there. From - Observation deck on Mount Akhun.


Ski resorts

Why you need to go: the ski season is just beginning, the bulk of experienced and beginner skiers will catch up by December. And on New Year's holidays, prices will jump above the mountain peaks, so we advise you to rest in November.

Where to go: Dombay, Belokurikha, Sheregesh.

When does the season start: depends on the specific resort weather conditions that will be built on it. In Belokurikha, you can usually ride from the end of November, in Sheregesh - from the middle of the month. And with Dombay, how lucky: the season can open in mid-November, and a month later. Therefore, we all listen to the weather forecasts of Professor Belyaev, and after that we decide where to go.

Which resort is suitable for: all resorts are quite developed and offer slopes of various difficulty levels. Therefore, both experienced skiers and beginners are welcome there. Read more about Russian skiing.


Moscow

Whycostsdrive: in November, the New Year's fuss has not yet come, and thousands of tourists are not yet walking around Moscow, craving fireworks and round dances around the Christmas trees.

What's up with the weather: everything is unpredictable. There may be minus temperatures with snow, or the sun may shine up to +10 °C. However, the main thing is that there are no severe frosts, and the conditions for walking are quite comfortable.

Things to do: while there are not so many tourists, you can get around without unnecessary inconvenience, walk along Red Square in the year of the centenary of the October Revolution (and maybe on the centenary day), buy warm souvenirs on the Arbat, and warm up in the capital's restaurants and cafes.


Saint Petersburg

Why you need to go: because this is St. Petersburg and you always need to go here, as long as you have free time and money.

How is the weather: overcast + all kinds of rain and sleet. However, if they run from other cities from such weather, then on the contrary they go to St. Petersburg for such weather, because it has become part of the city, its peculiar attraction.

Where to go: rest in November is a great time to walk around: you can see unique exhibits and warm up properly. Although, upon leaving the Hermitage, there is an option to take a chance and take a walk along the Palace Embankment and the bridge of the same name in order to feel the November wind from the Neva. Authentic cafes, which are in abundance on Nevsky Prospekt and other streets of the city, will not let you freeze.

An obligatory point of the program is the ascent to the colonnade of St. Isaac's Cathedral. The whole city is in the palm of your hand.

November is such a month when it seems to be no longer autumn, but not yet winter, in a word - the off-season. Some people prefer not to go anywhere in November, saving vacation days and money until December-January in order to capture New Year holidays, relax to the fullest in the resorts of Asia or ski slopes Europe and Russia, while forgetting that this is the high season with the corresponding prices and the number of tourists.
