Meteo Side in ottobre

October in Alanya is the month the sea outlasts the air. Regulars report days in the mid to high 20s, sometimes still 30C at the end of the month, and a sea that stays warm enough to be better than the hotel pools, which by then can be chilly. Our row agrees almost exactly: 27.1C in the water against 26.9C in the air. Evenings are the part people underpack for, and a jacket is the standing advice. On whether anything is still open, the forum's answer is that Turkey does not close down in a block the way Spain or Greece can - businesses wind down gradually and most are still trading through October. The record: 20.3C nights, 3.3 precipitation days carrying 38mm, humidity 64 percent and 10.1 hours of sun.

The Side forum is full of people hoping for a beach-ready March, and the honest answer from regulars is: it's pleasant for sightseeing, not for swimming yet. Daytime highs mostly sit in the mid-teens C, several posters warned evenings turn properly cool and you'll want a jacket or cardigan the moment the sun drops, and a couple described getting caught out by a sudden, heavy downpour that shut down outdoor plans for an afternoon. It's a good month for walking the ancient theatre and harbor without summer crowds or heat, just don't pack only summer dresses like one traveler admitted she did.

Forum posters describe early September on Turkey's Turquoise Coast as still solidly hot, commonly 27-30C under cloudless skies, with humidity noticeably lower than the peak of July-August. One poster tracking a specific late-September week reported days staying warm while evenings turned genuinely chilly by the last week of the month - cool enough to want a jacket or cardigan after dark, a real shift from earlier in the month. Sea and pool temperatures are described as comfortably 'just right' for swimming throughout, with posters generally rating September as an easier, less oppressive alternative to midsummer while the back half of the month starts trending toward autumn evenings.
