November marks the slide into winter. Days grow short and cool, rain becomes more frequent, and the peninsula returns to its deep off-season quiet.

It was in late 1915 that the Allies began planning their evacuation, giving November a poignant historical edge.

Late autumn conditions

Highs of 14-17C, cooler nights and more frequent rain. Warm, waterproof layers are recommended.
