What is the weather like in Ibiza in November?
November in Ibiza comes with a pleasantly mild climate, while many parts of Europe are already experiencing winter temperatures. Compared with the hot summer, the island does cool down noticeably, but it remains surprisingly mild with spring-like temperatures.
Average day and night temperatures
Daytime temperatures in Ibiza in November typically range between 17°C and 19°C. However, temperatures are still noticeably higher at the start of the month – beginning at around 21°C and falling to about 17°C over the course of the month. You can feel this gradual cooling especially in the second half of the month.
Night-time temperatures show a similar pattern: they drop from an average of 15°C at the beginning of November to around 11°C towards the end of the month. The average low is between 11,5°C and 14°C, depending on the source and the exact location on the island.
Interestingly, there are also regional differences: in Ibiza Town, the average temperature is 15,8°C, while in Sant Antoni de Portmany it is slightly lower at 15,6°C. These values are particularly notable when you consider that temperatures in Northern Europe are often around freezing at this time of year.

The Mediterranean sea temperature around Ibiza in November is on average 19-19,5°C[52]. What is striking is the range: while the sea at the beginning of the month can still be a pleasant 20-22°C, it cools down to around 16-17°C by the end of November. That means a drop of about 3°C over the course of the month.
Although these temperatures may be too cool for some swimmers, they still offer opportunities for water sports and a quick refreshing dip, especially on sunny days. We've found that swimming can still be quite pleasant, especially on calm days and in sheltered coves.
Humidity and wind conditions
Humidity in Ibiza in November ranges between 68% and 74%[52]. These relatively high values explain why the temperatures are still so pleasant despite the autumn season – the moist sea air retains heat better.
Wind shows an interesting trend in November: the average wind speed rises slightly over the course of the month, from around 19,5 kilometers per hour to 20,9 kilometers per hour. These values make November one of the windier months in Ibiza. In fact, only December is windier, with an average of 21,4 km/h.
The wind conditions can have a major impact on how the weather feels. On windy days it can feel cool despite mild temperatures, which is why a light windbreaker should be in your luggage. In addition, the risk of rain increases on especially windy days, particularly in areas such as Sant Vicent and Sant Antoni de Portmany.
Despite this slightly increasing wind strength, the climate remains very pleasant overall. The combination of mild temperatures, moderate humidity and the fresh sea breeze creates a comfortable feel-good climate that is ideal for outdoor activities away from mass tourism.
The weather in Ibiza in November is therefore transitional in character: the summer heat is long gone, yet the island is spared the cold of winter. With daytime temperatures of around 18°C, night-time values of about 13°C and a sea temperature of just under 20°C, Ibiza in November offers a climate that invites you to relax and enjoy yourself – although you should pack a light jacket for the cooler evenings and windy days.
Rain, sun and clouds: what can you expect?
The weather conditions in Ibiza in November are marked by interesting contrasts. While many regions in Northern Europe are already wrapped in grey autumn fog, the Balearic island offers a surprising mix of rain showers and golden sunshine.
Number of rainy days
November is one of the wettest months in Ibiza, although the figures vary considerably depending on the source. The number of rainy days ranges from 5 to 10 days over the whole month. The probability of a wet day – defined as a day with at least 1 millimeter of precipitation – is around 25% and remains largely constant throughout the month. 24 November has the highest chance of rain in the month at 27%.
Interestingly, the rain often comes in short spells. The island usually does not experience more than three or four rainy days in a row. After such short wet periods, clear skies typically return. In some areas such as Sant Vicent and Sant Antoni de Portmany, however, several rainy days in a row can occur when the wind conditions are right.
Rainfall over the course of the month
The precipitation totals show even more noticeable differences in the data. The stated values range from moderate 49-50 mm to 70 mm and even up to a considerable 229 mm. These fluctuations show that rainfall can vary significantly from year to year.
The average rainfall in the rolling 31-day window remains relatively stable in November at around 55-57 mm, but rarely exceeds 114 mm and rarely falls below 14 mm. 16 November marks the peak with 57 mm.
However, it is notable that there are years with extreme deviations. For example, one November was recorded with just 1,6 liters per square meter (98% less than the average of 66,8 liters), making it the driest since records began in 1993.
Hours of sunshine per day
Despite the increased chance of rain, Ibiza remains a sunny destination in November. Daily sunshine hours range between 5,4 and 7,5-7,6 hours, which is well above the European average of 4-5 hours of sunshine per day in November.
Another source confirms that even in autumn and early winter you can expect up to 8 hours of sunshine per day. This impressive amount of sunshine explains why Ibiza is still such an appealing holiday destination in November. In fact, visitors often enjoy a few hours of sunshine even on rainy days.
Day length does, however, decrease noticeably over the course of the month. From the start to the end of November, the day shortens by about 52 minutes, which means a daily decrease of around 1 minute and 48 seconds. The shortest day of the month is 30 November with 9 hours and 40 minutes of daylight, while 1 November still offers 10 hours and 32 minutes of light.
Cloud cover compared with other months
Cloud cover in Ibiza in November averages 51%, but shows a slight downward trend over the course of the month. While at the beginning of the month the sky is overcast or mostly cloudy about 45% of the time, this figure drops to around 40% by the end of November.
Compared with other months:
Month Cloud cover Special feature October 46% Cloudiest day of the year (31.) November 45% → 40% Downward trend July 10% Clearest month (24 July: 90% clear) 30 November is considered the clearest day of the month, with 60% clear or partly cloudy skies. This development already hints at the transition into the typically clearer December.
Overall, the weather in Ibiza in November is a mix of rainy and sunny periods. With about 5-10 rainy days yet still more than 5 hours of sunshine per day, the island offers a pleasant climate for activities away from the beach. The moderate cloud cover creates dramatic skies, while the decreasing cloudiness towards the end of the month increases the chances of sunny days – perfect conditions for nature lovers and photographers who want to enjoy the autumn beauty of the island.
Daily pattern: how the weather changes over the course of the day
A typical November day in Ibiza is surprising for its clear temperature swings over the course of the day. While other Mediterranean islands are already sinking into winter cold in late autumn, Ibiza offers a pleasant dynamic in its weather conditions that makes every part of the day special.
Morning: fresh, but clear
The morning hours in November begin with a refreshing chill that invites you to take a deep breath. Typically, we wake up to temperatures of around 16-17°C. The sky is usually clear and cloudless – a perfect start to a day full of discoveries. Particularly noteworthy is the exceptional clarity of the morning air, which provides excellent visibility all the way to the horizon.
In Sant Joan de Labritja in the north of the island, morning temperatures can drop to around 16°C, while in coastal areas such as Sant Antoni de Portmany they are milder at 18°C. At the start of the day, the wind is still gentle, with speeds between 5 and 10 km/h, which highlights the freshness of the morning air without becoming unpleasant.
Relative humidity in the morning is around 70%, which together with the rising sun creates that typical Mediterranean light so beloved by photographers. In fact, the day in Ibiza often begins with a play of colours in the sky that alone makes getting up early worthwhile.
At midday: Mild and sunny
As the day progresses, temperatures rise significantly. Around midday in November, we reach values between 22°C and 24°C, sometimes even up to 24°C in Ibiza-Stadt. This pleasant warmth is accompanied by uninterrupted sunshine, with clear blue skies dominating overhead.
In Santa Eulària des Riu the thermometer shows around 23°C at midday, while in Sant Josep de sa Talaia it stays slightly cooler at 22°C. The sun is now intense enough to feel comfortable in light clothing — though without the oppressive heat of summer.
The wind strengthens over the course of the day and reaches speeds of between 10 and 27 km/h at midday. This light breeze creates a pleasant body climate in the mild temperatures. Interestingly, the wind varies depending on location — in Cap Martinet it can even reach speeds of up to 29 km/h, while in Santa Eulària des Riu it blows much more moderately at 8 to 21 km/h.
In the evening: Cool with possible wind
As the sun sets on the horizon, the island cools down noticeably. Evening temperatures settle between 18°C and 20°C, with values possibly dropping further later in the evening. The rapid cooling after sunset surprises many visitors who are only dressed for the daytime.
In Ibiza-Stadt it remains relatively mild at around 18°C at night, and the sky is often cloudless with a clear view of the stars. However, gusts in the evening can reach speeds between 12 and 29 km/h, which makes it feel noticeably cooler. In Sant Antoni de Portmany, a few clouds move in during the evening, with temperatures of around 19°C.
At night, temperatures then drop to around 17°C, with readings in higher-lying parts of the island potentially falling to 12°C. For these conditions, a thick sweater or a light jacket is recommended — even without central heating, it stays pleasantly warm.
The daily temperature range shows an amplitude of around 7-8°C between the morning low and the midday high. This moderate fluctuation makes it easy to dress for the day — as a rule of thumb: several light layers that can be added or removed depending on the time of day.
Wind strength also follows a typical daily rhythm, increasing into the afternoon and gradually easing in the late evening. The highest wind speeds are typically measured between 14 and 17 o'clock.
Regional differences on Ibiza in November
Although Ibiza is a relatively small island, the weather in November varies surprisingly strongly depending on the region. These microclimatic differences can be crucial for planning your holiday, especially for outdoor activities or choosing the perfect accommodation.
Eivissa (Ibiza Stadt)
The island’s capital offers a slightly more moderate climate in November than other regions. With average daytime highs of around 18°C, Eivissa stays pleasantly mild. The urban heat island effect makes temperatures here about 0,2-0,5°C higher than in the island’s interior.
A notable advantage of the capital: storms that affect other parts of the island sometimes have less impact on the city. However, humidity is around 75%, which can create a damp, cool feeling especially in the morning. Rainfall is about 70 mm, spread across 5 rainy days.
Wind speed is moderate at an average of 24 km/h, which means the feels-like temperature can seem noticeably cooler, especially in the evening. Still, Eivissa enjoys an average of 8 hours of sunshine per day — ideal for sightseeing and café visits.
Sant Antoni de Portmany
In the western part of the island, Sant Antoni de Portmany has an average temperature of 15,6°C in November, with highs around 17,6°C and nighttime lows of about 13,7°C. Rainfall here is about 50 mm, spread across 5 rainy days in the month.
The temperature trend over the month is particularly noticeable: at the beginning of November, Sant Antoni still enjoys pleasant 19-21°C during the day, while by the end of November values fall to 14-16°C. This gradual cooling is more pronounced than in the capital.
The wind conditions here are especially interesting, as Sant Antoni is one of the areas where rain and wind can combine, leading to heavier showers. Even so, most days remain pleasant, with an average of 8 hours of sunshine and moderate humidity of 68,9%.
Portinatx and the north
The northern part of Ibiza, especially Portinatx, records an average temperature of 15,7°C in November, with highs of 17,6°C and nighttime lows of 13,8°C. This puts the region very close to Sant Antoni in terms of temperature, though with less rainfall at 49 mm over 5 rainy days.
The temperature trend over the month is particularly pronounced in Portinatx: while on 1 November it is still 18°C with highs of 20°C, by 30 November it cools to an average of 14°C with highs of only 15°C. This corresponds to a temperature drop of 4°C within a month — more than in other regions of the island.
In addition, Portinatx offers a consistent 8 hours of sunshine per day despite the cooler temperatures and 69% humidity, creating a pleasant feel-good climate.
Cala Gració and coastal towns
The coastal areas in the west of the island, including Cala Gració, have some special characteristics. The average land temperature here is around 17°C, while the sea temperature in November averages 19,7°C — notably warmer than the air temperature.
The water temperature drops over the course of the month from a maximum of 22°C at the beginning of November to a minimum of 17,1°C at the end of November. This fluctuation makes Cala Gració particularly interesting for water sports activities in the first half of the month.
Compared with other regions, rainfall is higher here at 68 mm over 4 days. However, the wind speed is lower than in other regions at an average of 17 km/h, which makes the weather feel more pleasant. Cloud cover is moderate at 31%, and visibility is an excellent 9,75 km.
Notably, weather conditions in coastal towns like Cala Gració are comparatively more stable than in the island’s interior, as the sea acts as a temperature buffer. As a result, nighttime temperatures here remain milder than in higher-lying regions of the island.
Overall, it is clear that despite Ibiza’s small size, regional climate differences are distinctly noticeable in November. While the north cools down faster and shows greater temperature variation, the coastal towns offer more stable conditions. The capital benefits from the urban heat island effect, and Sant Antoni takes a middle position — between the warmer southern and cooler northern regions of the island.
What can you do in Ibiza in November?
The mild November climate makes Ibiza the perfect time of year for active exploration and cultural discoveries. With fewer tourists and pleasant temperatures, there are plenty of opportunities to experience the island’s authentic side.
Hiking and cycling
The cooler temperatures in Ibiza in November create ideal conditions for outdoor activities. The months from November to April are particularly well suited to hiking and cycling, as the summer heat is long gone. Ibiza’s cycling season is split in two: spring (February-May) and autumn (September-November).
For hiking enthusiasts, the island offers several attractive routes:
- From Sant Josep to Sa Talaia: One of the easiest routes to Ibiza’s highest point, with breathtaking views
- Santa Eulalia river route: A beginner-friendly 3 kilometer trail with lush nature
- From San Antonio to Cala Salada: Leads to one of the most beautiful bays in the west
For cyclists, over 700 kilometers of bike paths are available in various levels of difficulty. Popular routes include Port Des Torrent, Sant Rafael, Santa Gertrudis and Sa Capelleta.
Cultural events such as the Ibiza Light Festival
The Ibiza Light Festival takes place every year on 8 and 9 November and transforms the historic old town of Dalt Vila into a dazzling sea of lights. The main stage is the Bastion Santa Lucia. Visitors can experience 11 large-scale light installations and interactive performances by various visual artists from the island.
The festival brings together art, technology and culture and is especially a highlight this year, as it takes place as part of the celebrations marking the 25th anniversary of Ibiza’s designation as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Culinary highlights: Las Matanzas
In mid-autumn, with the first cold snap, locals gather with friends and family for the traditional „Matanzas“ (pig slaughterings). This centuries-old tradition is far more than a culinary event – it is an important social and festive gathering.
Numerous specialties are made from the pig, including „Arroz de matanzas“ (a paella-like dish with rice and pork), the sausages Butifarra and Sobrasada, as well as „Frita de matanzas“ with pork fillet, loin, ribs, peppers, potatoes and garlic. Traditionally, these dishes are served together as a thank you to all helpers.
Markets and quiet beaches
In November, visitors can enjoy Ibiza’s beaches without the crowds. Popular coastal walks lead along the beach of Playa d’en Bossa, the cliffs at Salinas beach to the pirate tower, and through the area around Cala Conta.
The Las Dalias hippie market also takes place every Saturday in winter. Here visitors will find handmade clothing, silver jewelry and batik scarves – perfect authentic souvenirs. Other markets in November are:
- Sant Joan: Sundays 10-16 with handmade products and live music
- Mercat de Sa Cooperativa: Fridays 9-14 with local products
- Sant Jordi: Saturdays 8-15, a popular second-hand market
- Forada: Saturdays 10-16 with crafts and fresh vegetables
What should you pack? Clothing tips for November
When planning a holiday to Ibiza in November, the question is what clothing to bring. The island now shows its two-sided nature – mild during the day, but noticeably cooler in the evenings.
Daytime clothing: Light jacket and sweater
For daytime activities on Ibiza in November, I recommend a combination of light layers. With temperatures between 12 and 19 degrees Celsius, a light sweater or jacket is ideal during the day. The so-called „layered look“, where several thin layers are worn on top of each other, is especially practical. This method makes it easy to adapt to temperature changes throughout the day.
For hiking trips or bike tours through the autumn landscape, functional outdoor clothing is recommended. Good trekking trousers offer more comfort than summer shorts, while breathable T-shirts ensure a pleasant body climate during more active outings.
Evening clothing: Warm jacket and sturdy footwear
Nights on Ibiza can get quite cool in November. However, a thick sweater will keep you warm enough even without central heating. In addition, a warm coat should not be missing from your luggage, as temperatures can often drop below 15 degrees in the evening.
Sturdy footwear is also advisable, especially for trips into nature or walks along the now quiet promenades. According to experienced Ibiza travelers, I also recommend packing a pair of waterproof hiking shoes if you want to explore the island’s numerous hiking trails.
Don’t forget rain protection
Although November days are often sunny, the month is considered one of the wettest on Ibiza. A good rain jacket should therefore definitely be in your suitcase. It not only protects against rain, but can also serve as a windbreaker.
Despite the increased number of rainy days, it is worth bringing sunglasses, as the sun can be intense between showers. If you want to be on the safe side, pack a small, lightweight rain cape as well, which you can quickly reach for in sudden showers.
The right mix of warm clothing and rain protection makes an Ibiza holiday in November a pleasant experience – regardless of the weather.
Conclusion
In summary, Ibiza in November 2025 offers a surprisingly pleasant travel experience. With average temperatures of 18°C and around 8 hours of sunshine per day, we enjoy a mild climate that stands in clear contrast to the winter temperatures in Central Europe. Although the water temperature of 19-19,5°C may be a little cool for some for swimming, the low chance of rain still makes the month attractive. The regional differences are particularly noteworthy – while Eivissa benefits from the urban heat island effect, the north of the island cools down more quickly.
The low season also brings significant advantages. First, we enjoy the beaches and sights without tourist crowds. Second, cultural highlights such as the impressive Ibiza Light Festival and the traditional „Matanzas“ are a draw. Third, the mild weather is ideal for activities such as hiking and cycling on the over 700 kilometres of marked cycle routes.
Anyone traveling to Ibiza in November should definitely think about appropriate clothing. During the day, a light sweater is often enough, while in the evening a warmer jacket becomes necessary. Given the occasional rain showers, a waterproof jacket should also be packed.
Our conclusion: Ibiza in November 2025 surprises with a perfect mix of mild climate, cultural richness and natural beauty – far away from mass tourism. Autumn shows the Balearic island from its most authentic side and rewards everyone who dares to travel outside the main season. Thanks to the pleasant weather and relaxed atmosphere, Ibiza is undoubtedly still worth a visit.
