What November feels like
By November the Banks belong to the people who live here and the ones who come for the quiet — you can walk down to the water at Coquina Beach and see nobody in either direction. The wind swings around to the north and stays there, so layers are basically the entire packing list.
Expect about 5 days with real rain — enough to notice, not enough to plan around.
Can you swim?
The ocean runs about 61° — cold — a quick dip takes resolve.
