LondonTowner Posted May 13, 2017 #3 Share Posted May 13, 2017 In May should be nice during the day, but still quite cool at night. Dress in layers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love.II.Cruise Posted May 13, 2017 #6 Share Posted May 13, 2017 What is the weather like in late October? Going October 29. We always have traveled to Barcelona at this time - this will be our 4th. It is typically in the 70's during the day and cooler in the evenings. Dress in layers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garycarla Posted May 13, 2017 #7 Share Posted May 13, 2017 Be very, very careful about what what folks share about weather. Between vague memories and possibly different than normal weather on a certain trip can give false direction. Sites like weather.com mentioned or https://www.wunderground.com/ are great sources of historical and accurate weather. And, no matter if Alaska or the tropics, temperatures INSIDE the ship stay about the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son of a son of a ... Posted May 13, 2017 #8 Share Posted May 13, 2017 May 7, 2016 - wore shorts the whole time ... the kind that end just above the knee. DW wore capris. No sandals - was not that warm; sneakers more comfortable for walking and uneven ground; respect for churches; and you may get you toes stepped on at some of the crowded venues. Most of our excursions involved a lot of walking so you kept moving and warm. Felt too cold to sunbathe when underway, but when in port it seem fair enough to lounge outside. We packed umbrellas, but did not need them. In hindsight, I would just pack a hooded rain jacket ... too crowded to walk with an open umbrella. A hat or sunscreen would be helpful ... we were quite pasty at that time of year (no base tan yet) and you are outside a lot for the week. Enjoy!

We finally decided to just go with sneakers so we can pack less shoes. This is after a month of me going back and forth. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
