purplecow15 Posted October 9, 2022 #1 Share Posted October 9, 2022 (edited) Looking to book a 12 day cruise from Lisbon. These are the ports of call. Is the weather at that time of the year going to be on the cool side or would we actually be able to sit by pool on a sea day? Also will it be off season for some of these ports meaning rather sedate? The dates are October 23-Nov 4.

VUCruiser Posted October 9, 2022 #2 Share Posted October 9, 2022 We did a transatlantic in mid-November 2005 from Lisbon to Ft. Lauderdale with several of the same ports (Lisbon, Agadir, Casablanca, Seville, Canary Islands) before crossing the Atlantic. In port, weather was beautiful-warm (at times it was hot, but mostly comfortable) and sunny. Did not wear jackets. On board, enjoyed the pool and our balcony...(later crossing the Atlantic ran into more weather issues). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maria63 Posted October 9, 2022 #3 Share Posted October 9, 2022 The Canary Islands are a very popular winter destination for Northern Europeans, and people go there primarily for the balmy climate & the sun. So you could def. get some nice sea-days. As for the Spanish Med-ports, I'd say January is a very good month to visit on a cruise and for city-sightseeing. Fewer crowds and no uncomfortable heat, but absolutely not sedate in any way. You need to be prepared for wind & rain and temps around 15C, but on nice days it can also easily rise to 20C or more.

Maria63 Posted October 9, 2022 #4 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Re my previous post, don't know where I got it that you were talking about January (sorry, senior moment 🙃) Anyway, Oct/Nov should be absolutely fine too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
