Seville and Málaga
The verdict for October
Warm, comfortable and arguably Seville’s best all-round month.
+Comfortable heat + manageable crowds
–Rain becomes more likely later in the month
October combines Seville’s most comfortable temperatures with manageable crowds and no major festival-driven price spikes, making it a strong contender for the single best month to visit.
Warm days, quieter streets
+Excellent walking weather
–Rain risk increases
October is one of Málaga's strongest months for a city-focused trip, with comfortable daytime temperatures and far less summer intensity. Rain becomes more likely, but sunny days remain common.
Scores and crowd levels are my own judgement; temperatures are monthly averages. Higher scores are better: quieter, cheaper and more pleasant.
