Bilbao/San Sebestian/Porto - November 2026

Hello,

Flights right now late November are pricing well and I don't mind traveling during the off-season; however, wondering if its really rainy is it worth to go? I would like to visit some museums, and indulge in all the great food...and hopefully take a river trip (day) in Porto.
I would go around Thanksgiving thru the first week in December. Any thoughts?

We visited Porto and did a Douro River Cruise in early May and had visited Portugal before.
We found that the Atlantic coast of Portugal that the ocean has a huge influence on the weather. The water at the beach we visited was colder than we thought it would be. Also, the air was chillier than we thought.

Not sure that I would go in November.

Thank you for your quick response - I should add I live in Wisconsin by the lake so used to the lovely "lake effect" weather!
