November is the best time to visit countries that are around the Mediterranean. This is because the ocean and abundant seas regulate colder and warmer temperatures, providing a temperate climate that invites visitors. Spain is well known for its unique architectural style, a mix of cultures, cuisines, and beautiful basilicas. With roots in an African, Moorish, and Catholic upbringing, the history of Spain is rife with the mixing of cultures. It was also an important port city and trading partner before the split between itself and Portugal, which was once only one nationality.
See traditional bullfights, eat some delicious paella and try the best sangria you have ever tasted in your life. While the climate may be cold and rainy in the west, Spain is sure to please in November.
Mexico has an astonishingly unique climate throughout the year. Considered a dry land, Mexico only experiences rainfall for two months of the year, September and October, in most regions. Although Mexico is quite large, each region has its own traditional and cultural influences. The two most popular tourist destinations can be found in the Southeast and West of the country - Cancun and Los Cabos, respectively. While both are regions within Mexico, they have drastic differences. Cancun is home to lush forests and jungles and is a party destination for adolescents and young adults. The Mayan influence has dominated the traditions in this area.
Los Cabos is a desert climate that is close to the Pacific Ocean. This has created a very distinct juxtaposition in its surroundings, which is dry most of the year. November is the best time to visit, as it is just after the final rainfall, allowing you to experience a place without the blistering sun. Contrary to Cancun, Los Cabos has a laid-back and relaxed feel, which attracts ex-pats and those looking to settle down with their families.
Morroco is just the perfect mix of Arabic, African and European cultures. Its climate also prevents it from getting too cold, making November the best month to visit without incurring the wrath of the sun’s hot rays. Mid October to Late November makes the climate hover around 22 degrees centigrade, so you can enjoy its fabled citadels and Islamic architecture.
Malta is one of the world’s best-kept secrets, and many sites are constantly trying to feature it as a beautiful tourist destination. Often confused with the city of Italy, Malta has a unique history and a diverse culture that has some of the best diets in the world. Although it has received some critical comments about its unimaginative activities, Malta prefers to let its natural beauty, climate, and position speak for itself. When someone visits Malta, they cannot shake that esoteric feeling of being surrounded by a medieval topography. The city of Valletta holds high and mighty walls, a head nod to its once powerful days when Malta was considered an impenetrable fortress.
