Antalya weather in November is a mix of warm, sunny days and the first proper winter rain. It is no longer guaranteed beach weather, but it is still far warmer than the UK, the sea is surprisingly mild and the resorts are calm.
Quick answer: Antalya in November is mild rather than hot: daytime highs around 21°C, nights around 10–11°C and a sea temperature of about 21–22°C, warmer early in the month. It is one of the wetter months, with about 150 mm of rain over 7–8 days, often in heavy downpours with sunny days in between. It suits sightseeing, walking and relaxing rather than a guaranteed beach holiday.

What the weather is like in November
- Early November often still brings warm, sunny days in the low to mid-20s, good for a walk on the beach and lunch outside.
- Late November feels more like a mild spring: cooler, with more rainy spells and chilly evenings.
- Rain tends to come in heavy bursts, sometimes with thunderstorms, followed by clear, fresh days.
Is November a good time to visit Antalya?
It depends on what you want. If you need guaranteed sunbathing weather, it is a gamble. If you want mild sunshine for sightseeing, walking, golf or simply a cheap break with a heated pool, November can be excellent value. Many of the big all-inclusive hotels in Lara and Belek, and the city of Antalya itself, stay open, but many seasonal hotels in smaller resorts close, and boat trips and beach bars run a reduced service or stop for the winter.

Travelling during COP31, 9 to 20 November 2026
Antalya hosts COP31, the UN climate change conference, from 9 to 20 November 2026. The venue is the Antalya EXPO Center in Aksu, about 20 minutes from Antalya Airport.
If you fly in or out between 9 and 20 November, the roads around the airport, and transfers and taxis, may be busier than usual. The official COP31 travel page tells visitors leaving the airport by taxi, shuttle or hire car to plan their arrival time with traffic in mind. Book your airport transfer before you fly and give your flight number. On the way home, leave for the airport earlier than you normally would.
The official COP31 transport map lists shuttle and bus lines between the airport, the city, Lara, Belek and the conference site, some running 24 hours. The official COP31 website says transport is free for accredited participants. The Antalya Governorate’s COP31 site says all COP31 service lines are free and that the line details state no accreditation requirement. Neither page says the lines are meant for holidaymakers, so do not plan your arrival around them.

Tips for Antalya in November
- Check what is open. If you are staying in a small resort, ask your hotel which restaurants and services are open before you travel.
- Heated pools matter. When you book, check that the hotel has a heated or indoor pool.
- Flights and transfers. There are fewer UK flights in November, so arrival times can be late at night. Pre-booking a transfer avoids waiting for a taxi; see our Antalya Airport transfer guide.
