Bermuda weather in November weather is not the worst of the year, but it gets pretty close to being the worst.

Worst is a matter of opinion, of course. Beach lovers won’t love Bermuda in November because the average high temperature is only mildly warm. Temperatures are cool enough especially at night to make water temperatures chilly for swimming during the day.

It’s also chilly compared to most island destinations on Caribbean cruises because Bermuda isn’t actually in the Caribbean. It’s just a common stop for cruise ships embarking from the East Coast of the U.S. on their way to the Caribbean.

Bermuda in fact is about as far north as the U.S. state of South Carolina.

Temperatures in November

The average high temperature in Bermuda during November is 75 degrees Fahrenheit or 24 Celsius, the Bermuda Weather Service reports. It is somewhat warmer than the cooler months of December through April. That’s when the average daytime temperature is about 70 degrees Fahrenheit or 21 Celsius.

The average low temperature in November, which is usually at night, is 66 degrees Fahrenheit or about 19 Celsius.

Those temperatures are fine for walking around the island in light pants and possibly a light jacket.

For swimming temperatures, the months of June through October are much more comfortable for time in the water and on the beaches. Temperatures then often reach into the mid 80s Fahrenheit or high 20s Celsius.

Rainfall in November

Unlike the Caribbean to the south, Bermuda has a moderate amount of rain each month of the year that varies little from month to month.

Rainfall reaches a high point of more than six inches historically in Bermuda during October, according to the Bermuda Weather Service. It is one of the most active months of the Caribbean hurricane season. That six inches is enough rain to discourage visitors.

Bermuda weather in November is somewhat better with average rainfall of more than four inches. That level is typical of most other months of the year and similar to many Caribbean destinations in November.

Between the temperatures and the risk of rain, visitors to Bermuda in November are more likely to go there to escape colder weather to the north. At least it’s closer than going all the way down to the Caribbean. It’s just not as warm.
