Córdoba, Spain (Cordoba) weather in October

October is the month Málaga regulars call the best of the year for swimming — the sea has been heating all summer and sits around 20°C, "los mejores baños del año" — with air temperatures still pleasant near 23°C. The forum also calls October the area's wettest month, which is worth reading carefully: counted in rainy days October is mid-pack here, drier than March, December or January. The two claims reconcile in how the rain arrives — short, sharp autumn showers rather than long drizzly spells, so a lot of water on not many days. Late October is noticeably less comfortable for swimming than the first half.

Andalucía's forum calls April glorious weather for Córdoba — warm enough for sightseeing and hiking without summer's extreme heat. Regulars note Córdoba draws visitors year-round given its climate, and that May gets noticeably busier once the Crosses festival and the patio contest land, making April the calmer of the two.
