Benidorm in November
Around 16 °C by day, sea 19.5 °C. Too cold to swim. Quieter than the peak: 3 out of 5 against 5.
November in Benidorm is 16 °C by day and 19.5 °C in the sea. Few people swim, but November is when the town becomes what people pick it for in winter: the summer families have gone, the winterers have arrived, load sits at 3 out of 5 and stays there until March.
The town's main festival falls on the second weekend of November — for its patron and for the apostle James; it runs five days and is held for locals rather than visitors. A good moment to see how much actual Spanish life there is under the international resort, and to test the town's central promise: that in winter everything here is open.

The winter column is a 1-to-5 score: how many cafés, hotels and shops run in January compared with the best month of the year. Where a village has no government figure of its own, it is our estimate. Tourists never notice; anyone who moved does.
Rain days and humidity are annual here, not monthly: 40 rainy days a year, 67% humidity in winter. We have no monthly normals yet and will not invent a split.
