Lanzarote in October
Around 24 °C by day, sea 23 °C. Warm enough to swim. Quieter than the peak: 2 out of 5 against 4.
October on Lanzarote is 23 °C in the water: close to September (23.1 °C), the warmest water of the year, and warmer than August (22.5 °C). Air at 24 °C. The ocean warms later than the land, so the best swimming in the Canaries comes in autumn rather than midsummer.
Load is 2 out of 5 — the island empties between seasons. In October, as in September, Lanzarote looks like a resort without the resort crowd: summer water and few people. If you were to pick one month of the year to come and decide whether to live here, this is it.

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: 20 rainy days a year, 62% humidity in winter. We have no monthly normals yet and will not invent a split.
