dmrrn73 Posted June 4, 2023 #1 Share Posted June 4, 2023 We are doing the Symphony of the Seas from Rome on October 5th. We will be in Rome a couple days before we set sail. I would imagine like here in the US we should be prepared for anything but is there an average temp, is it rainy season there? We are doing an excursion in Naples that includes Beach time, is it even going to be anywhere near warm enough to want to go in the water? It's not the main reason I booked that particular tour so if not it's no big deal but was wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisemom42 Posted June 4, 2023 #2 Share Posted June 4, 2023 (edited) Rome's temperatures (as well as those in Naples) tend to be fairly moderate but may not be "beach weather" in October. Most Italian beach resorts close up their pools and beach facilities (chairs, etc.) at the end of September. Curious what beach you had planned to visit? Temps in Rome average from around mid-50s to 70-ish (Fahrenheit) in October. Naples might be marginally warmer. As to rain, October is, in general, slightly rainier than September but not as much so as November and December. You can get beautiful days in October with intense blue skies. Note that both Florence and Venice are farther north and can be cooler and rainier than Rome or Naples.

The info for the excursion says "Once in Capri, stop for a refreshing swim at Marina Piccola off the coast of the island" I guess it would be more "refreshing" than most people would want, LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare schmoopie17 Posted June 4, 2023 #4 Share Posted June 4, 2023 We were in Rome the end of October and early November last year and the weather was unseasonably warm. Most days were sunny and over 80 (f). Your mileage might vary this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is why I tend to Google search for the historic averages, and can adapt up or down a reasonable number of degrees. Better than anecdotal info.
