Averages for Venice in November

November sees temperatures in Venice drop quite dramatically.

The average temperature only gets as high as 12°C (that's about 54°F), with minimum temperatures being around 4°C (about 39°F).

The average sea temperature is only 16°C (about 61°F) - combined with the cool temperatures and the likelihood of rain it is not recommended that you go swimming.

You can expect to experience rain on an average of 11 days in this month. The average monthly rain is around 87mm and there is 3 hours of average daily sunshine.

St. Martin's Day on the 11th November sees a lively fair being held in the streets of Venice.

And the Festa della Madonna della Salute has been taking place since 1631. This procession through the city was originally started to celebrate the end of the great plague.

Between October and March, many of the streets of Venice are liable to flood.

Duckboards are laid to move around affected areas of the city, and the water is sometimes deep enough for rowing boats to be used.

However, the site of landmarks such as St. Mark's Square in a flood are extremely striking and memorable.
