I will be in Andalucia and environs (Costa del Sol/white villages) the first ten days of October. I'm wondering if it is cool at night and I should bring sweaters or if it is still warm. Will I be able to wear skirts (no stockings) at night or should I bring mostly pants. It's a funny time of year and I don't want to load up my suitcase! many thanks.

I'll settle for anyone who knows anything about the October evenings in this part of Spain?? Anyone??

It will be cool at night!

I was in the Algarve of Portugal at that time last year. I imagine the weather is similar. Days were sunny and warm. At night, you will need a light sweater, but that's all.

in early october it's likely to be in the low 80's during the day and maybe down to the 60's in the evenings. you'd probably be fine in skirts with bare legs as long as you have a little something to keep you warm on top.
