What's the weather like in Playa del Ingles in October

Temperature

October once again sees high temperatures in the Spanish beach resort of Playa del Ingles, almost rivalling the height of summer. Visitors can expect an average of 23°C, peaking at 25°C and only dropping to 20°C overnight, so air-conditioned accommodation is preferable at this time of year.

The hottest daytime temperature on record for October is a sweltering 35°C, while the lowest is 15°C at night-time. Temperatures usually fall just 1°C over the course of the month. Sea temperatures remain the warmest of the year at 23°C during October, so it's a great time for water sports.

Rain

After the clear skies of summer, October brings a few clouds in the sky to this southern part of Gran Canaria and it becomes cloudier as the month goes on. Fortunately rainfall remains low. Just 10mm falling over five days means the average holidaymaker is unlikely to see much, if any, precipitation. Throughout October, the most likely types of rain are moderate rain showers, drizzle or light rain, and most commonly towards the end of the month.

Humidity

October has one of the highest humidity levels in Playa del Ingles so strenuous outdoor activities may be a little uncomfortable.

Wind

Wind speeds are likely to be no more than a fresh breeze and will ease up as the month progresses.

Average Sunshine Hours

The number of sunshine hours remains the same as in September, at a pleasant ten hours a day.

Playa del Ingles Hotels in October

The three-star Sahara Beach Club offers affordable rooms with terraced bungalows suitable for up to four guests. Each bungalow has a private terrace with furniture for enjoying the sun. The complex features a freshwater pool, which is heated in the chillier months.

The wonderfully named Aparthotel Riu Flamingo is a four-star resort located minutes from the beach and perfect for families, couples or groups of friends wanting a relaxing break. Surrounded by gardens with palm trees, the hotel's facilities include a fresh water swimming pool, a solarium terrace, a playground and leisure pursuits including golf, bike rental, squash, mini golf and tennis.

 

Playa del Ingles Beach for October

While you're at Agüimes, windsurfing fans will want to pay a visit to Playa de Vargas, one of the world's best beaches for radical windsurfing and home to the sport's annual world championship. The beach has a camping site especially designed for windsurfing enthusiasts.

If you prefer diving, Agüimes also has the beach for you. Playa de El Cabrón boasts the biologically and ecologically richest marine area in the Canary Islands.

Bars and Restaurants

For drinking and dancing, spend an evening at the Garage Pub. The venue is open until the early hours, with 'happy hour' discounts on a selection of drinks with a 'buy one get one free' offer. There's a wide selection of wines, beers and cocktails, so plenty of tipples to suit all tastes.

If you fancy a daytime pick me up, visit the aptly named Cappuccino House. Serving breakfast, lunch and of course coffee, its specialities include Panini, club sandwiches and salads.

Things to do in Playa del Ingles in October

Take advantage of the warm sea temperatures and spend a day at the Dunkerbeck Windsurfing Centre in nearby San Agustin. Gran Canaria has some of the strongest sea winds of all the Canary Islands, so it's an ideal spot for this particular sport. You can book ten hours of lessons or simply rent equipment and head out to tackle the waves yourself. Surfing and bodyboarding is also offered here, with multi-day courses for beginners.

Spend a day or two exploring the historical town of Agüimes, a 19 mile drive northeast of Playa del Ingles. There is so much for visitors to do here. Admire the Parish Church of San Sebastián, one of the island's best examples of neoclassical architecture. Check out the beautiful mountainous scenery of Temisas, including the el Roque Aguayro rock formation and the Canary Islands' largest olive grove.

Then explore the cave dwellings of Cueva Bermeja; see the archaeological remains and native cave drawings at La Montaña de Agüimes; and visit the deep ravine at Guayadeque, where you can dine at restaurants built right into the rock of the mountains. The town's craft workshops and gastronomy will have you wanting to stay even longer.
