Bermuda Weather – November

November marks the start of Bermuda’s low season. Most cruise ships visiting the island made their final voyages of the year in October. Airfares and hotel rates are now significantly cheaper.

Air temperatures in November are roughly the same as in May. The weather is still quite pleasant. The average daily high air temperature is 24°C (75°F).

The average water temperature is 24°C (75°F). Most locals have now stopped swimming in the sea, though many visitors still find the water comfortable. Rainfall is around average for the year.

On a typical day in November there’s around six hours of sunshine, one hour less than the annual average. Daylight Savings Time ends on the first Sunday in November. From then, sunrise is around 6.45 am and sunset at approximately 5.15 pm.

Remembrance Day is the only public holiday in the month. A Remembrance Day Ceremony is held at the Cenotaph in Hamilton. Bermuda’s parliament reconvenes in November. On the first Friday of the month, the lawn outside the Cabinet Building is the setting for the Throne Speech, a ceremony where the governor reads the new policies of the government.

The major event in November is the World Rugby Classic, a rugby tournament for former international players. It’s held at the National Sports Centre in Devonshire Parish.

From November to March the Bermuda Department of Tourism and others organise numerous regular events to entertain off-season visitors. They include walking tours, visitor golf tournaments, cookery demonstrations, and more. A brochure outlining all events is published on the Department of Tourism’s website.
